Building a server (any way to manage bandwidth?)

DJMK4 · 6 Nov 2006 at 12:33

Im looking for a way to manage bandwidth coming in from the ADSL line, it will go directly from the router to the server, from there the server will distribute the connection to the rest of the network through a switch.

Is there anyway i can allocate certain amount of bandwidth to specific I.Ps?

Bandwidth Controller is the best program I've come across.

Is it easy to use and effective?

Im fed up of everyone hogging the bandwidth in my house

If the server is reliable, you could connect the adsl to it and abandon your router altogether. There are plenty of software routing solutions with traffic shaping. Intergate and Wingate spring to mind.

Worked fine when I used it, you can probably get a trial from them.
