Help With Sharing Bandwidth Equally Over LAN?

[k00l_3]

Was wondering if it was possible to share bandwidth equally over a lan?

I have a Billion 7402 adsl router that 4 pcs are connected to, as soon as one of the pcs download something the rest of the pcs have slow access to the internet, is there a way to limit the amount of bandwidth that each pc uses so that each pc has equal internet access speeds?

Any advice would would be greatly appreciated.

That would b speed based not bandwidth.
Both can be limited with a software called Netlimiter (installed on each pc).
Various other softwares available

Sorry not an expert......

will this "Netlimiter" limit all aspects (p2p,browsing,voip) ?

 

[SYNERGY]

It can be set to limit each individual application

pc's - are they connected via a hub or switch?

what downloader do you use?
FreeDownloadManager can limit a downloads speed and can also down BT files

Freedownloadmanager won't help for other applications/ports/lanning....
I'm also looking for a solution, but I would have loved it if the router could have managed this. But Netlimiter would prob be the best option for now, thx!
