Default Any bandwidth control?


Just wondering if there's any bandwidth control features in Vista to limit
bandwidth to a machine on the network? If there's not, I really do think it's
a feature that needs to be implemented. Alot of people share their internet
with others on a network and like myself, need to limit the bandwidth.

Thanks.

Yes, Open Network > Network Center > Manager Network Connects (left pane) >
right click your ethernet connection > click "Properties" > click
"Configure" > Advanced (tab) > under "Property" select "Link Speed &
Duplex" > click in the Value: list box, there should be options for changing
it to an appropriate speed.

Hi. Thanks, but that's not the type I meant. Currently on my gateway machine
(XP) I use 'Bandwidth Controller' app to limit send data to my mum and dad's
machine to 10k. That's the type of bandwidth controlling I'm after.
