One of the features:
# Bandwidth usage notification
If you’re using a bandwidth limited Internet connect, you may need to get an notification when you exceed the limitation for the connection. It’s available in Bandwidth Meter Pro as well.
But i don’t know how you do it in router.
But you can use this, they just have to be fair
Answer #4
I think none got my requirement currently!!!
Let me explain.
I dont want any bandwidth meter to check my usage as its unlimited.
Say I have 4 PC’s…1st PC starts downloading the file utilizing 90% of bandwidth…
when I try to open .org for instance to open on next PC it shall take ages….
Hence I would like a software to restrict the sharing of bandwidth (One shall act as a server, which decides the bandwidth for each machine)
Hope You guys got the point!

If you use IDM you can limit the download speed
Answer #7
My Problem not solved (NetLimiter Pro also invain)
@kryptZz : Please read my question
Answer #8
, to acheive what you want, you’ll need a dedicated PC running something like FreeBSD configured to restrict bandwidth per IP. It would have to go between your PC’s and the Internet though, which would kind of render your router useless. Hardly a real solution to your problem given the cost.

Look if there is any custom firmware for your router, usually they will include bandwidth limiters.
