If C is feeding _through_ your router to your LAN, you can rate limit
_egress_ to your internal network from C. It's a bit of a hack doing it
that way, but it works well enough from experience. If your router is
the consumer of traffic (ie a proxy server, or such) then probably you
want to play with ingress policing.
