Basically I have a 6meg cable line which is getting filled rather quickly from my roomates torrent connections. I have a dd-wrt flashed linksys router, but it's not doing much to help me out on this issue. I'm not sure what client my roomate is using, from my router logs it looks to use a different port to download and upload everytime. So now here I am, thinking that I should go with a m0n0wall/smoothwall/ipcop solution. Could this device let me shape Torrent traffic for all of my LAN (upload and download), and does it have the ability to let me limit my P2P roomates upload and download speeds? Can these changes be made on the fly while I see the downloads start to kick in and have it take effect immediately? How are you guys handling torrent abuse on your lans?
All repllies are appreciated.
