My roommate wanna share my Streamyx. So i'm charging him RM40 a month, with terms & conditions.

1. No P2P!!
2. No 24Hr online.

I'm going to buy a wireless router (cos i don't want to pull those damn lines). So now the question is:

1. How do I restrict him to use P2P? Can I do some tricks in the Port Forwarding?
2. How to divide/limit the bandwidth? (sorry, the old thread is gone)

If you don't intend to allow him for those purposes i suggest you better not share the line since he's paying a fair price for the line too so he's entitled to do what he wants with it. And whats this about no 24Hr online?
Don't bring it up here acting all selfish.

if i were your roomate, i'll pay another 26 bucks for those...with condition that there is 2 telephone line

No 24hours? Then what is the purpose of unlimited access package you subscribe?

Yeah....i agree with Dragna, u are selfish...lol

I'm not sure if you can block via ports....because I think you can specify what different ports to use for certain p2p softwares.

OT agree, he is selfish!!! No 24 hrs? lol

i dont think u can restrict him from using p2p, but u can set rules with him

i can understand no 24hrs p2p, wht tht kind of shit no 24hr on9.....

Yes if he does not know how to change ports, you can start to block a range of port from the router... If his smart, he'll change the port.. If his not, he'll complain to you...

let him P2P la..
juz QoS in ur router... and control the bandwidth for u both...

First of all, i really appreciate those who's trying to help. but for the rest, i don't post a thread for your lecture ok?

First of all, my housemate couldn't afford to subscribe a new line because of the initial activation and installation fees. He begged me to share the line with him coz he said he just want to sometimes surf the net and chat with msn, and he promised that he's not going to use p2p. So, I'm kind enough to share my bandwidth to him. we're not staying in the same room, so who knows if he could end up using p2p software to rape my bandwidth? I don't really know him well ok?

Charging him RM40 a month, i have to purposely go and buy a wireless router and share the line, i paid all the installation and activation, and i have to pay RM88+RM25 every month, wasn't that fair enough? If he wants to use p2p or so called 'fair' bandwidth, he can always go ahead and install a line by himself.

Last but not least, why do you want a 24hr online if you're not using p2p? do u really need to be online while you're sleeping???

then you should explain the problem to us

QoS him up...easier , just put BT disable , if you know how to set iptables rule..then okay..then assign him static DHCP..meaning that even he wants to change his IP..he still gets the same one...which is even better !

WRT54G...!

Thanks for your help pal! you're always the one who rulez this forum!

excuse my stupidity, please spend another 1 minute to answer my stupid question, coz i'm really new in networking:

1. QoS is a software or a method?
2. For the iptables rule, i just activate DHCP and assign him a dynamic IP that's all?
3. WRT54G !! means you're recommending this model? u know how much is the street price? some said linksys is the best, issit true?

Everyone rocks.....Not me , the whole LYN forums..that what makes it great..even you

1. QoS is found in routers..its method to control bandwidth

2. Iptables , u can drop all the packets , and the connections (e.g if he tries to connect more then 10 connections in a certain port , bam..the connection drops..meaing that his bt will stuck at 0kb/s..if he connects more then 10 connections , but if he connects 1..he might able to download it at a very slow speed). assign him static DHCP..meaning that , if he asks for a new IP..the router will give him the same one..over and over again and you can block him from having a new IP....meaning that he can't bt

3. Linksys WRT54G with DD-WRT..does this job well..RM 225...the last price..Its sorta true

1. QoS is a method... Which shapes things up for the packets... This feature would be in Linksys WRT54G router.

2. Not dynamic IP but static IP..

3. Yes.. Recommended model. Priced around RM245 but was RM225 during PC Fair. Its hard to say who's best but this Linksys is value for money considering the features..

ok. I've bought the WRT54G. and guess what, it's version 5....

QoS doesn't works for me. he's using wireless and i can only control the bandwidth for wired port.

how bout iptable? can the original linksys software do the job? how?

erm 24hour thing, u can put restriction on the specific "ip" (assigned to your fren) u cna set like at everyday 12am his connection will cut off..........its available in the netgear "192.168.0.1" under (schedule)....

I'm on the 512 / rm66 package. Whenever I launch my BitComet, my Firefox won't work AT ALL. The page not found error will pop up. I don't think its the bandwidth issue that's causing the problem. My torrents are barely sucking 10-15KB/s. If I turn off BitComet, I can do speedtest and get 50KB/s.

I suspect that BitComet is launching too many concurrent connections. I remember somewhere that WinXP has maximum connections at 200.

How do I limit my BT client to how many connections to connect to (in Azureus & BitComet since I use both!)

Oh, I'm using Win2k, btw...

i think u have problem with port forawarding, have u read on the topic provided about port forwarding?

I got the ports forwarded correctly. BitComet is not sucking all the bandwidth, but I cannot surf.

I found a similar thread here.. but no REAL solution.

may be u try this software...
last time face the same problem as u
a forumer introduce me this
can work..

just open the port to 100 as ur default only 10
then u restart ur pc..
hope its work......


Attached File(s)
 EvID4226Patch223d_en.zip ( 39.02k ) Number of downloads: 997

if u are using Win2K the software to open up the max connection is no help either....first u need to check at which point the connection start dropping: -

1. Fire up ur torrent client
2. Then ping the IP address of ur modem/router instead of ur dns
3. Check if there's any lost connection to ur modem/router
4. If so, then ur modem/router is overloaded with open connection to the internet
5. If there's no lost connection to the modem/router when u ping while doing ur torrent downloading then it's streamyx problem

Solution: -
if u are having lost connection to ur modem/router while downloading, then the problem lies in ur modem/router (it get overloaded with open connection)...there are 2 solutions to this

1. Change to a better router that allows more open connection

2. Use manual dial to connect to streamyx (dial from the computer with username and password via the PPPoE application, coz Win2k does not have built in PPPoE dialer)

Lastly, can u please state ur brand and model of the modem/router that u are using.....(are u using the Telekom modem to do auto dialing and router mode???) ....

hope this help

metalhead, thanks for your detailed response. after firing up my BT client, I'm getting a lot of ping timeouts. I'm pinging my Linksys WRT54G on a wired connection.

Surely this expensive router can't be that lousy? Do I need something from Cisco? lol..

shanelai, I ran the patch and it reports that Win2k doesn't have this limitation.

Ok, now I'm telling my Linksys router (192.168.2.1) to get a DHCP IP from my modem router (192.168.1.1). My computer is 192.168.2.88 (static). So can I go into my Aztech 305E modem and set to port forward to 192.168.1.2 (Linksys's IP on modem)??? Or forward to 192.168.2.88 (not detectable??)

a linksys huh..?

search for startup script for ur linksys. the IP buffer is overloaded due to long timeout due to the huge number of IP connection a p2p program (BT for instance) would trigger, hence making ur web browsing paralysed.

consider flashing ur linksys to HyperWRT, so as to add the functionally of startup script. HyperWRT is an open-source 3rd party firmware for ur Linksys. and no worries as u can practically reflash ur linksys back to the stock firmware which u can find back in linksys's homepage for warranty claiming if so needed.

a sample startup is as below, set this to ur router's startup script:

echo 4096 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_ignore_bogus_error_responses
echo 512 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/neigh/default/gc_thresh1
echo 2048 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/neigh/default/gc_thresh2
echo 4096 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/neigh/default/gc_thresh3
echo "600 1800 120 60 120 120 10 60 30 120" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_tcp_timeouts

the limited half-open connection is irrelevant to ur problem as u r using win2k, only winxp SP2 would have the 10 half-open connection limitation.

Ok, I flashed to HyperWRT, went to Management -> Startup . (WARNING: Recommended for advanced users only). Then I copy pasted the script. Reboot modem.

Launched Bit Comet with all my downloads (8) loading. And pinging router now. Looking good so far. Thanks! Hope it stays that way.

Success... Even web surfing is much faster now. Running all 10 slow-torrents (rare files).

good for u. u r fast..

Any advice thx? Months waiting.. Old liao.

Your modem support QoS or not? Check the manual for more detail. Dead link BTW.

Yep , does it support QoS or not. IF it does not , there is no way (well there is , unless you wish to convert your PC into a server for this)

Block his bittorrent port lar, settle

Block BT port just make it slower not blocking the whole thing

im using aztech dsl600e provided by streamyx.
wat i wanan ask it that, wat do i put at
SOURCE START PORT:? SOURCE END PORT:?
DESTINATION START PORT:? DESTINATION END PORT:?

The PC must have a static IP

Of course for Destination IP , you could leave it blank if you wish to make it as global

i tot i shud leave it blank for source ip if i wan it to be global. put 0.0.0.0 and netmask wud be 255.255.255.255. wat i ask it wat do i put in the port?

Yes, pls see syyang85 post, same thingy. I wanna set his, how? Can teach?

Yes, pls see syyang85 post, same thingy. I wanna set his, how? Can teach?

How?

Better than nth... no choice

After checking the bitcomet listen port, then? Put it at Destination port? Where do I need to key in his IP address?

can someone guide me...how can i limit my sister pc bandwidth to 100KBPS only..?? using Aztech DSL 600E

GTG

Put 305E in bridge mode. Then at least you avoid if any problem caused by 305E. Even your network will be much simple.

how to disable auto connection n using manual connection? noob here...pls advice....TQTQ

This thread is not active also... Mmmm

Hmmm.. Seem like thing not helping anymore.

can somone explaint to my.. all this QOS thing in this Screenshot???

Linksys QoS thingy:



1) want t know about the priority. Priority to get the bandwith?? or the priority to be set as the bandwith limit set??

2) whut is the best upstream limit can be set to get the so so conection for the wireless connection???

3)Device priority... which device should i put.. whut its actualy for???
Router?? gateway?? or pc?? 2 only??

4)any program or software to get the specific port number from a program we want to optimize???

get from incoming log or outgoing log seem confusing.

5)WMM support and no acknoledge thingy.. whut its really for??

im using aztech dsl 3100r and there seems to be no QoS function or ip filter in the router config page

i also wanna limit my frenz connection to limewire as he has been downloadin hell lotsa file via limewire until i cant have a good DoTa game

well of coz we are sharing internet connection so can anyone help me to limit his bandwidth without accesing to his computer?

Hmmm i also got use this original QOS before but it seems like not working very well for me so wat i do is i flash it to the DD-WRT V23... now playing around with the QOS setting and its working great for me...but sometimes if too many torrents running playing W3 will have quite a high ping but still ok la can play...better than no set anything lag like hell..haha

can DD increase the Transmitt power like Hyper WRT can do???
anyway.. whut setting do you set to your Wireless setting?? mind to share.

anyone can guide me to set bandwith or band user by setting router DI-604.
Bt always disturb me surf net or paly online game.
Since a few housemate comp always DL bt and disturbing me, so i hope aomeone can teach me set the bandwith so bt no more disturb me......................

Mine doesn't have QoS...care to teach? I've spare PC to convert as server...

Well , its possible

PLease do state your specs and we might help you [I prefer Linux]

Oh yes , the server should be on 24/7 and it must have at least 2 LAN Cards

im using aztech dsl3100r ( 4 port router modem and im pretty sure it doesnt contain QoS ) and currently sharing with 3 others housemate
using windows xp proffesional ( lanun )
i have an intergrated lan card and i can afford another lan card if possible
so how do i do that? i mean convert my pc into a server and limit their bandwidth?

thankz and sorry if i sound stupid

Here's my situation, i am in a room with 2 other roomies and lately i found out one of them has been downloading BT non stop. I have been having a hard time even connecting my yahoo messenger.

So i am wondering if there's any software where i can control the speed. The room has one port and we are using a router, to share the connection.

Please help

Same as mine, streamyx connection are shared among 4 housemates. Connection still bad though I blocked all the P2P ports through the routers. The drastic action taken is I totally block them through MAC address in the router at the specific hour. This is the last resort.

if you are using thoose tmnuts modem , like kasda or zte if i am not mistaken
there is some kind of quota bandwith balancing or something , shit cannot remember the name now - you just have to set the max and min bandwith for each ip ... correct me if I am wrong

best way.. 1 line 1 person.~

then you need to apply 4 teliphone line for your home if you got another 3 housemates...

i dont know if this is possible, but if you really want to do so, you can try to talk to tmnet, tell them to uncap your DSLAM speed, you should get 8mbps, then apply for four streamyx accounts, so if each is using 1mbps, then your line is transfering 4mbps. I have tried to connect 2-3 streamyx accounts using the same line ( you just need different modem to dial ) my connection was 1mbps, and the line speed was 3mbps, i manage to utiliize all the bandwidth, it worked.

wat to do.. got stubborn housemate.. i rather soloing my connection~ cos i hate lagging.. nah u go sucscribe 512k then use alone, thats good enough

can meh?? i ask tmnet they say cant.. haiz.. they said if want to 2 lines need 2 phonelines.. so thats what i do in my house. im soloing and rest of my friend suffering very 'fast' internet. they shared 8 ppls~ Mhahahaaa

i remember long time ago someone in lowyat.net mentioned b4 there is a software that can seperate the internet speed to different pc. but i also forgot wat's the software liao. maybe you can search the old post ... or perhaps the person who provide the solution can see this post and answer your question.

my solution. shhh~

can teach? or where can i find the link to learn it

This post has been edited by forrest: May 6 2006, 10:11 PM

you have to have access to the router though..

by blocking the Mac address... They can't surf anything.
Is there anywer to let them surf only but restrict p2p... windows have this function to disable it?

so, does D-Link DSL-500T support this QoS? i want to cap bandwidth shared with others in the house. is it possible?

to block p2p try blocking all the ports starting from from 6000 all the way to 65536. see what happens.

Im using windows xp's ICS to share my internet connection with 9 other pcs. Is there any way that i can limit the number of incoming connections from those 9 pcs?

Care to teach me..how to know the MAC address for each pc

for windows xp

Connection Status > Support > Details > Physical Address

or from command prompt type "ipconfig /all"

the physical address is the mac address

Currently I'm using DSL-500T and planning of getting DI-604 to share the Streamyx with other 2 pc.

My question is, can I cap the speed for the other 2 pc without effecting my pc?

hi guys,

has anyone tried onspeed? i'm sharing connection with my brother too at home, he on pc, & me on laptop, & he's always complaining abt slow internet connection. We have now got a software called ONSPEED. it's an internet accelerator, speeds up loading of web pages & download of big documents too. we r now both happier surfers

check it out http://www.onspeedasia.com

Does OnSpeed comes with any freebies? (Malicious Spyware, Keyloggers etc.)

guys, i'm using an aztech 600eu right now and it is equip with QoS. No iptables though (there is a routing table).

the problem is i dunno what to put into the text fields. (

Can anyone guide me or direct me to a guide or something?

thanks.

same proble here but with Aztech DSL600ER, here is the screenshots:-





what should i fill in the fields if i wanna set bandwidth for particular pc or applicatiion(bt)???

Regarding DD-WRT you guys mentioned about, anyone tried it on DLink DSL504T router modem? I did not see any name of DLink in the compatible hardware list.

Btw, anyone have any success story to share pertaining to bandwidth control on DLink DSL504T router modem?

J

Guy n Girls pls help~ What to fill in the coloum in there pls~

i have a problem here

me myself is using the wired connection and my brother side using the wireless connection connected to my linksys WRT54G router.

the problem is he keep BTing till the modem hang all the time.

is there any way to block his wireless connection from any p2p program (BT) ? only allow for surfing,msn messenger.

i wanna have maximum internet speed. does enabling QoS affects performance?

It will improve the traffic but your maximum download speed will not be reached as QoS reserves a certain amount of bandwidth depending on how you set it.

dude, can u teach me how to block any p2p protocol via my router? at least they download at low speed... now many customer complain due to crappy connection. how to do it? im using BEFSR41v4

I'm using DSL600ER too , and i want to limit my sis's comp bandwith how to do it ?

ya,i experience the same problem anyone care to help us?
Thanks!

I am using a software called "P2POver", search the software through China's search engine and you will know what it does....

It works...

Hi guys....i'm having a problem here. i'm using belkin Wireless G Router F5D7230-4 and i'm using a normal 1.m.b streamyx package. i'm fustrated with my housemate coz he keep on downloading torrent and so on and that makes me can't surf web. just wondering does u guys know how to divide the bandwidth and make it fair for 3 of us? any tutorial links? thx in advance...

If I'm not wrong this router doesn't have QoS features. If it doesn't have QoS features there is nothing much you can do about your house mate that keeps on downloading except to discuss with him on slowing down his downloads.

check whether this router can support dd-wrt.

http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Supported_Devices

some belkin router can. u can check your version there...

The software has changed its name to "Netsense" in new version.
You can get a trail version from http://www.grabsun.com
It is only in Chinese, sorry
It is using some kind of techniques called "ARP spoofing" to limit others' bandwidth




Attached thumbnail(s)

so DLINK DSL 504T cant QOS?so wat to do to tune BT?

are they any other software that similar to Netsense from grabsun? because it's fully in Chinese and i don't understand Chinese language.

BT is abit hard to control although the software claim that can be filtered. Try to find something which can control based on IP address and assigned a fair bandwidth to it. Just my 2 cents.

Can someone help with the QoS settings? 5 pages and none who knows... I'm talking about the Aztech settings which someone posted screenshots of earlier on.

Cmon guys... there are some of us who need help in these kind of things...

All help appreciated! Thanks!

is there any way to actually like set 20kb/s to one computer on my network using DD-WRT? Becos he is freaking downloading video from youtube and BT again... i cant stand oleidi... WArm him once he never listen at all. Currently i block him from searching bt youtube or bittorrent this kind of word. But i wan shape the traffic.

Install Linux on an old PC.

Put in Ipp2P and then use iproute2 to throttle it and everything you DON"t want to be fast.

works like a charm.

Linux is GREAT!

hi guys i m using dlink dsl-504t as well.Do tis modem router supports qos? N if it doesnt support can i make it to support qos?.

By the the grabsun a,how to test if u a rili limiting dl speed based on the software. I mean how we c the result of our configuration in the netsense.

Help is appreciated

How old? I can afford a LAN card and I have a Pentium 2, can pentium2 work? I don't know much about Linux stuff.

Wow.. It seems like most ppl here complaining about the misuses of their friends and asking for tutorials to really divide bandwidth equally..

I guess somebody should try to make a tutorial or explain the steps on doing it with most details..

I'm sharing a connection with my sister using ICS(Internet connection sharing). The problem is whenever I'm playing some online game like Dota and she loads up her sites like some sale thread or blog with 50-100 pics I'll get huge delays in my game.

I've considered other things like getting a router or switch, what's the best solution? I've heard that routers with QoS are capable of limiting her bandwidth/prioritizing mine but they're pretty expensive :E

hmm... there's no helpfull detail on QoS settings here.... this topic shuldn't b pinned....

any keng keng programmer can change the "netsence" into english version?
or anyone can have a step by step guide in english to teach ???

i am facing same problem...any1 can teach me how to limited the bandwidth?
i dunno where, what to set...attach is the main page i enter the router setup page...it is a Zyxel Modem Router, come with TMNET..
thanks...
