Need to limit other laptop DL speed

Guys, I need to find away to limit the max DL speed for other laptops via a Belkin wireless G router. Any idea how I could do this?

It's a belkin

set it to 1 or 2 Mb if it allows

and buy your own wireless router

Otherwise you would need something a lot smarter, possibly a linux flashed router

I did buy it! Quite a while ago though:rolleyes:

Thanks CM, there's no option to limit anything on the router so will need to have a stern chat with the house mate about whoring through the DL limit.
