Allocating bandwidth?

Is there an app (a firewall app, possibly) that you can assign different
running tasks a different share of bandwidth.

eg, 3 programs A, B and C, where A & B get 40% each and C get 20%

Thanks

Different queuing methods tend to work on protocols
or addresses rather than application.

I've used it for about 6 months - a fantastic little app.

thanks...

Is there "something" that can setup different queuing methods for protocols
or addresses?

(I am a newbie at all this, so bear with me...)

In a similar vein: I have two logins on a Windows XP machine. On the 1mb
service I have, I would like to reserve (say) 20% of the bandwidth for one
of the users - so that when one is logged in downloading movie trailers
using 80kps, we can switch user so the other can surf at 20kps...

does this make sense?

Thanks again

You may be able to do this with XP's QoS service...

Will this program allow me to monitor and control what other users download
using my wireless home network? I've set-up a wireless ad hoc (peer-to-peer)
network.

Cheers.
