how to limit bandwidth in all but a specific device?

[Shonk]

Any viable solution has to do one of two things

DPI each and every packet at the router which is processor intensive and adds packet delay
or rate limit at the hardware level via a managed switch

Either way you wont be picking one up for 10p

i have offered you the best solution from a hardware perspective
if you dont want to pay it there's not alot more to say

so the cheapest option is Zyxel GS1900 ? and this is ALL I need? it has built in QoS FOR DEVICES?

[Shonk]

you can limit the rate of every wired device on the lan
and if you have a seperate wifi access point you can limit that also
but ofc you cant limit the wifi built into the sky router

im it may or may not be the cheapest option but its the best option as its done in hardware at switch level

I have now closed your other thread on this as it is confusing for the members and yourself having 2 threads running on the same subject.

As I said before Shonk's suggestion to use a managed switch is a good idea, however you must realise that this will only limit the bandwidth of devices directly wired to it, or using a wireless AP wired to it. If the devices you want to limit are wireless then you will have to connect a wireless access point to the switch and force the device users to use it. If the devices you want to limit are connected by ethernet then everything is OK.

I bought the Netgear DNG-2200v2, can you tell me please how to configure the Netgear Genie to do what I want? thanks!

First connect your router to your internet connection if you have not already done so and make sure it works properly.

Then download Netgear Genie and confirm it works with your router. Download the instructions http://www.netgear.com/assets/landin...UM_31Aug11.pdf and read them.

Create a Guest network by following the instructions in the relevant section.

There are 2 possible ways to get your username and password. The original and certain to work way is in this PDF http://www.skyuser.co.uk/forum/attac...led-router.pdf

The easiest way, which may not work, is to use the Sagem F@st settings in this online calculator -

You can cross check your results by using this calculator -

You should also download the full manual, if you did not receive it on a disk.

Using the Netgear Genie you may not need the other settings, they are there just in case you do.
