Ok, here's the story, my sister is on my network using my router, meaning i have admin on my router, now shes just taking up way too much bandwidth on my connection that games just plain lag now. Is there a way that I can limit her usage to like.. say... 20 kb/s at most. BTW, i'm using a D-link wireless router.

Hmm maybe this little program might be of some help, http://bsb.net.ru/en/index.shtml
*Edit: you said she plays games to lag you?? If they are online computer games you install and everything I don't think this will help..it's only HTTP data I believe :confused:

does dat include downloads on P2P programs? this program isn't useful at all, gotta install on client side and also, even if i can do that, this thing don't seem to work for me. ah well... i wish there was a program increase the amount of settings on my router. cuz the one dlink provides is a piece of crap

You could always just use WinVNC and , take control of her cpu and cancel all of her applications, i do it to my little bro all the time , he doesnt know what the hell to think , ::evill cackle::.

the thing is to reduce their connection to soemthing like 56k so they dont waste connection in stupid things like chats and shit

It would be pretty hard to do that-there maybe some registry settings you could change. Another way is to threaten her... what kind of stuff does she download so much?
