How to give the computer speed limit for sharing the Internet

Many users are using multiple or multiple-user routers to share the Internet, saving costs while also a lot of trouble. For example, sometimes some users are in the BT download, and other users want to play a legend, it may be fun to play, because there is no speed limit of the BT download, often consumes most of the network bandwidth or even all. Is there a way to limit the flow of some network segments or specific machines within the intranet by limiting the flow of traffic? Do you have a more reasonable allocation of bandwidth between computers or users? Let's take a look at some of the knowledge here.

First, the router's traffic restrictions

Peer-to-peer downloads are like locusts, where the bandwidth is strained. Peer-to-peer downloads often allow 10% of users to take up 90% of the bandwidth resources, as well as a variety of switches, routers processing capacity, resulting in network congestion. and whether the router can make an effective restriction on this form becomes one of its important abilities. The first attempt is to use the port on the router to solve, but as the BT client software upgrades, users can modify the application of the port at will, so the result of this approach is not ideal.

1, flow control in the ascendant

So the more popular method at the moment is flow control. At present, many high-end broadband routers, Internet cafes dedicated routers have this function. The flow control function can classify the data stream according to the information of IP address, protocol, port and so on, which can control the bandwidth of different kinds of data flow, so that the bandwidth of the specified host or service is reserved, the maximum bandwidth is limited, and the use of the mass downloading software such as peer-to-peer can be realized A multi-user network that is particularly suited for voice video and data mixing.

Traffic throttling has become an advanced feature of many routers

If there is a need for local area network traffic restrictions, you can choose products with such features. And this kind of product's flow limit function also has each characteristic:

For example, Flying Fish star volans-4150+ router, it supports the QoS flow control function, bandwidth sharing, bandwidth reservation, support for the specified number of hosts, network segments to do up and down line traffic control. If the intranet of a machine opened BT or other peer-to-peer software for network transmission, the computer will send a large number of connections, affecting other users of the connection, directly leading to the entire network paralysis.

Flying Fish Star 4150+ The number of connections from the line can quickly determine which machine in the intranet to connect the largest, and then through its traffic restrictions to a host or a network segment to control. When you set up, you simply enter the number of upstream and downlink restrictions, "save" to achieve a computer or network segment bandwidth control.

The

and Tp-link tl-r4000 and other models are also representative products in this respect. This router also provides port flow control, which sets the 8-level bandwidth limit for each LAN port, 128Kbps, 256Kbps, 512Kbps, 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 4Mbps, 8Mbps, Managers can allocate broadband network bandwidth to computers that have access to any one port as needed, so that users on one of the ports will not take up too much bandwidth.
