Hi Joseph,

we use etinc (etinc.com) at work, bur for a "pocket friendly" setup you could give this a shot if you got some time on your hands.

Hullo,

Does anyone know what ISPs use to limit customers' bandwidth to a
particular maximum speed?

I have a few bandwidth hogs on my network and want to limit each
computer to a particular maximum speed so bandwidth is fairly
allocated to each user regardless of their usage (e.g 192.168.0.5 gets
a max speed of 10kbps)

Cheers, Joseph
