bandwidth division

[p0rkus]

i have 3 roommates and one of them would always run a p2p program and hog all the bandwidth. is there a way to divide the bandwith up equally among the four of us, or a way to limit the bandwidth on the computer?? any help is greatly appreciated.

Are you using a hardware router, software router or something like ICS?

hardware router ==> depends on the price, in better one you can configure a bandwith limit per LAN IP;
software router ==> for sure there is a setup option;
ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) ==> no native support for that;

i have a hardware router, a cheap one though, so no option to limit the bandwidth.
