[QUOTE="lil, post: 162580"] It would as a best scenario solution be a router end solution as that's the thing that ultimately decides the destination of the packets coming in over the network. Any software based solution is likely to use a messy 'polled' method of restriction whereby it continually checks the speed and through whichever magic lowers the bandwidth constantly, and as such it will probably be a bit of a hog. Of course it depends what you are downloading from, some applications have maximum bandwidth limits put in, Safari however and web browsers don't seem to... Google I guess! Vicky :flower: [/QUOTE]
