Limit others bandwidth on wireless network?

[MxZeal]

I want to limit my roomies when im gaming

That's fucked up.

You'd probably need at least all their traffic going through a managed switch, then you may have some options for it, but you really can't on just a consumer wireless router.

Just use QoS on your router.

Just use QoS on your router.

yup QoS on your router

 

Give priority to whatever ports your game uses

So your games and whatever would get priority 1

 

then I would make HTTP/HTTPS get priority 2

 

so on and so forth

if your on Ethernet

nothing they do should effect you unless your internet is really slow. 

or if they are downloading files in witch you can just ask them not to

QoS pretty much does shit on consumer routers so you pretty much have to have something that supports rate limiting. pfSense is a great option for many reasons, this is one of them.

I use a Zywall and you can manage bandwidth via IP. Works a treat, But not cheap.

ty for suggestions guys

That's fucked up.

Not when people are hogging the bandwidth it's not.

Pretty sure if you had a 10Mbps package and someone was using 8Mbps you would be pissed.

I would be buying a better router to properly split the traffic lol
