I'm a broadband user in malaysia.....Using 1Mbps service..but I'm sharing the line with 8 other housemate,using a wireless router(Netgear).2 of them are using LAN wire,other like me just use wireless lan.but 1 of my f**king housemate(using wireless),dunno wat is he using 2 dll,when he came back,then the whole internet service like turning into a dial up line..slow like hell....not even can open up a page..even google need 2 wait a few minute 2 load. i wana ask that any1 here can help me on setting the router 2 limit the bandwidth of every wireless user,or some software that can be use 2 limit that f**king fellow. we all r so fed up with him... hope that some1 can help me...thank you....
yeah there's a way to limit dl.. but dunno bout the features of the modem... mayb they went over dl limit and is now shaped?
Check the documentation on your router. From a quick scan, it doesn't support that feature. You would need to go the way of an open source os for your router if it is supported. Check out http://www.dd-wrt.com/dd-wrtv2/index.php and a few others out there. Knoc
I had the same Problem with my housemates, I guess he is using something like BitTorrent. If yes then you need to tell him to set up his program. When he installed the program, it sets the download speed to unlimited, thats why he uses all the speed which is available on your network. You can ask him to limit his dl speed to a more decent speed, which allows other people to use the internet without problems. By the way, 1 Mbit with 8 sharers is not very efficient ^^ It´s about 12kb/s each.
^ yup .. i was going to say. there's only limited bandwidth coming through the line and it's being shared by 8 people. plus, how sure are you it's really 1mbps? did you check?
knocturnal idea works better than telling him to limit his upload/download speed. a QOS setup from those freeware might actually limit the amt of bandwidth he would be using for the bittorrent. it might take a little time to setup but the benefits will be felt immediately
wireless is always slower than wired...and plus u got that many ppl sharing 1 internet its bound to be SUPER SLOW
id say if hes BTing, the upload bandwidth hes using is probably killing the line, but yeh 1mbit between 8 is not a lot at all... i live in a house of 4 and we got 20mbit, sometimes thats not enough
sigh.... this is malaysia..... aih........................... the best we can get here is only 1Mbps.... and the service are damn stupid..... alway will get problm... by the way,if we can convince him 2 nt dl,then we wont get so fed up....that stupid fat as*.... any way...thankz 4 all your help.... will try check out the QOS thing.... if it work...then the stupid fat as* will 'die"
i dont think that he is using torrent...cause other are using torrent also... but the dl speed is just zero point something kbps..... but when we dl using direct dl...there r not much prblm..there stil got the speed of 20-30kbps.. by the way,Knoctur_nal, i dl the dd-wrt files,but dont know how 2use it... is it just upgrade the router with the bin file? and my router model is not on the list...
