For the L7 router, the bandwidth limiting feature would be called 'QoS engine'. It would be located under ADVANCED > QOS Engine. Screen shot of the QoS engine page: http://screenshots.portforward.com/routers.../QoS_Engine.htm

There doesn't seem to be any guides for the QoS setup for this router model. Best advice I can give would be to click on the 'More...' link on the 'Helpful Hints' column to read up on the settings description, and test the QoS configuration.
As always, it would be best to perform a backup of the router configuration before changing any router settings, just in case.

QUOTE(legenderycity @ Dec 30 2013, 01:20 PM) I see. I'm more towards TP-Link and currently comparing the 1043ND and WDR3600. I can see the WDR3600 has dual band. What does it mean? Dual band refers to the wireless frequencies that the router is able to support, namely 2.4GHz and 5GHz. A quick and brief description about the two can be found here: http://www.tp-link.com/EN/article/?faqid=499FYI, in order to use the 5GHz band, you will have to make sure that your wireless device/adapter/laptop is able to support the 5GHz band.
