DSL wi fi

(1/2) > >>

Hello,

is there any tool that can throttle down your DSL (wi fi) connection to whatever bandwidth you want?

say you have 6 megabit per second....but want to throttle it down to say 120 Kylobit per second......about 60 times less bandwidth
right...

what is that tool?

thanks

it's called tc, no joke, it means traffic control. http://lartc.org/manpages/tc.txt

hiro:
beware of the mostly nonexistent documentation. the reference i gave is just so you know what to search for.

cast-fish:
ok thanks

so it's in the kernel of Linux.....or something?.....a tool that already exists
in any distro?  (almost)
