Ok, so here's my problem. My brother signs up for a megaupload membership to download foreign films to the pc. I thought cool, I really need some movies to watch and if he downloads it to my share folder its alright. Well, I shouldn't have shown him where to get them. A week later, he had 8 download files running at one time, my desktop is a 2gb ram desktop and it goes down to a crawling speed. The internet speed is horrible too, the messengers just stop working, and if I watch files on the network at that time, everything would just crash. I tried face-2-face confrontation, but it doesn't work. I took the lan cable away, but he just find a bunch of my old short cables and connect them together, or eventually find out where I hid it. I put him on wireless and it doesn't work, he'll just unplug my cable and use it. So what I'm asking, is it possible to allow only 2-3 downloads at one time ? If possible, could I tune down the internet speed for all computers ? All my stuff are torrents, and occassionally I download freeware and games to play, so it doesn't matter if I tune everything down including myself, I just don't want to pay an extra $20 for total of $48 for high speed internet, to be able to play during his downloads. Thx
