Right, here is the situation guys. I have three computers connecting to the internet via a router on a 1024/256 connection. I would like to limit one of those computers to only having a limited amount of bandwidth...

I know that I cannot do this on my computer as the second computer does not connect through this one, it connects directly through the router. The router is a D-Link DSL-504 (Rev B).

I wondered if I could install a piece of software on the other computer to make it not use as much bandwidth.

Could somebody please advise...

Thanks.

Thank you very much, it has worked. I installed it on the computer in the other room and now it is limited to 35/17k rather than eating up all my bandwidth for downloading. Thanks again.

www.netlimiter.com. It's not free, but it's an outrageously good bit of software.

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
10/10
Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
