limit internet bandwidth for individual users

[fitzsscott68]

We have 3 users sharing a single service and were wanting to limit the bandwidth/speed that each user can have so that all users have equal speeds. This is mainly for downloading/streaming of videos etc.

We have a TPG modem have looked through the setup sections but are not that tech savy so dont want to tinker too much. any advice greatly appreciated.

Yo @fitzsscott68. What's your modem/router brand and model number? Let me give it a try. I believe TPG's new TP-Link modem/router have those kind of feature but not so sure.

Yo @fitzsscott68 I tried to search for your modem/router's wireless feature and here's what I got. Correct me if I'm wrong coz' I wasn't able to find the exact reference for your modem but I tried to use TP Link's TD-VG3631

I'm not sure if this interface is the same with your TP-Link but it seems it doesn't have that option where we can control the wireless bandwidth.

Unlike this TP-Link Archer VR2600

As you can see above there is an option where we can control bandwidth option for the wireless on 'Advanced Settings' 

I haven't tried it yet either as my modem/router doesn't have that option too. But in case you would like to check other option you can use this reference.

Hope it helps.

Excuse me, is there any way to check current internet usage by IP and  restrict device bandwidth on Huawei HG659 router? I didn't see the network speed control option anywhere in the device management webpage.

My router's interface is like the second one (TP-Link Archer VR2600)

However, I don't seem to have Bandwidth Control option at all in mine. Are there extra steps to enable that?

Hi @khushiraheja92

We've responded to your post here.

The said feature is not supported on the TPG provided modem/router.
