Is the network family-oriented or is it configured for work or school?

25 Kbs on a 2Meg connection. Thats a bit mean of you isn't it? Thats even slower than dial up. Give them few hundred Kbs at least.
Most home routers do not have facilities for bandwidth sharing, or traffic shaping as it is called. You need something a little more sophisticated.

I want to do the same, But I have an msi rg54g3 wireless router. My configuration would be home with just bandwith limiting on the wrieless WAN and but not the other four hardwired WAN's. Can this be done with software or is it somthing much more complicated?
