ober Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 .... get a ISP that isn't such a douche? I'm not sure who you're dealing with, but I'd have to pull down a TON of bandwidth before my ISP would even blink an eye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bilis_money Posted July 2, 2007 Author Share Posted July 2, 2007 thanks ober but i think it's not with my ISP. my brother is a qualified software cracker. he can reverse engineer a software and he is using his evil ability against me now. He is using it on his nonsense routine by playing online games. he is a true garbage... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 If your using a Linux based firewall / router you can use squid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roopurt18 Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 You should be able to run multiple online games at a time through the same cable / DSL connection without causing much lag. So unless you are on dial up, I doubt it's his online game that's hogging the bandwidth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelmanronald06 Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 If your on a router, period, you can log into the router config and block his gaming port. Then just change the login name and password for your router so he can't log in and change the settings back. Problem solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azu Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 If it hurts you so much, then just ask him to stop playing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bilis_money Posted July 3, 2007 Author Share Posted July 3, 2007 He will never listen, he is playing games for his whole life. He is a MORON. :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviewdr Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 http://www.google.ie/search?hl=en&q=proxy+for+windows+limit+speed&meta= and http://www.youngzsoft.net/ccproxy/ Basically you need to put/install a Windows proxy on 1 main computer which has the internet. Then share it out via this 1 main computer. Then this 1 main computer using ccproxy for example can limit the bandwidth of clients. Of course the gaming app your mate uses will have to be able to use this proxy. Check your router also as it may have options to throttle or shape traffic over certain ports. You could also try looking for a network app which will shape traffic on a network (from your computer to his), and case traffic on his port etc. to be limited effected etc. -steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azu Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Of course, if you mess with his computer like that, he is probably going to mess yours' up in return. If we don't hear back from you in a few days, I'm going to guess that's what happened. Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roopurt18 Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 He will never listen, he is playing games for his whole life. He is a MORON. I've been playing video games for 25 years; I'm 27. I don't think it's his gaming habit that makes him a moron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedarkwinter Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 my guess is its not the games thats taking up the bandwidth; its the bit torrent!! so tell him you willl call the cops on him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
