Router Q: Bandwidth thottling
Cloq:
Do any consumer routers support bandwidth throttling/packet shaping? 4-8 port router with wireless support.
It would really help in a family situation, prevent certain members of the family from hogging all the bandwidth due using peer to peer like apps for instance.
I have tried the QoS and like approach. Really doesn't seem to make a real difference.
Perry Mowbray:
I have a young son who can use a lot of our Bandwidth at times, and I've found a gentle word will get him to throttle himself; he uses NetLimitter I think ...

I should probably have posted this under new products and services but…
If all else fails, for a modest fee (plus expenses) I'll come round and throttle him for you :)

Check to see if the ASUS RT-N12 or ASUS RT-N13 fits your needs. They can be found in Buy.com, Newegg.com, and jr.com.
JavaJones:
I would just buy something compatible with DDWRT (list here: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Supported_Devices#Supported_Devices ) and use the throttling feautures built-in to the software.
