Lowering Network Speed

[Cody.]

Hi Guys

Please forgive me if this is in the wrong thread (noob here).

So basically I have a 4mb line which is shared by another person, This person is forever downloading and causing problems for slow net and gaming ping/packet loss issues. I would like to know if its possible to lower his download and upload speed?

I have tried researching and cant find anything for my router which is D-Link DSL-2750U.
I cant access his pc to install anything and therefore need to try something through the router.

If anyone has a solution please help.

Thanks

How about assigning the lowest priority to his IP using QoS?

Thanks for reply. Could you please explain how to do this, quite the noobie when it comes to these things xD

Yeah sorry don't really know how to on your router.

I had a similar situation where my son's pc was sucking my connection dry to the point where streamimg youtube was unbearable. So, using a TPLink router with DDWRT firmware I assigned his pc a static IP address and then gave that IP address the lowest priority on the LAN.

Unfortunately my router is very limited when it comes to these things :/
Hopefully someone here knows a trick but thanks for the input.
