How do I stop my machine with a fast network card from being a greedy jew whenever I try to download something?
Every single time my machine downloads anything at all, it decides to take up literally all of the bandwidth for the entire apartment because it can.
sudo apt-get install trickle
o wait

anon pls
this is a real problem, even for images it locks up the network for 1/2 a second since for that 1/2 second the network's entire bandwidth is being claimed by my download

Come on dude, are you like 14? Just the way you talk is cringy
Hope you don't mind OP but I'm gonna ask this here since google isn't helping and I don't want to start a new thread.
I'm running IIS for my websites and maybe like an hour after I start the server I'll start uploading max speed all the time to a random IP. I can deny the IP in my firewall and it'll stop but will always come back with a different IP shortly after. I've tried using Wireshark to investigate and it's all very similar TCP requests but that's really all I can tell. Not much help. I've tried dynamic IP restriction but that doesn't do anything either. Weird thing is I can disable my sites individually until none are hosted but It'll still happen until I completely disable IIS. Any idea on whats going on and how I can stop it? It seems like when port 80 is open thats when the attacks happen. If you look up the IP they're usually from completely random places.

Might not be the greatest way to do this but I used it a while ago. Should be intuitive enough for someone who doesnt know how to use google like yourself.

Danke
Although it barely matters, I did try to find this myself- all that I could find were programs that were xp-era trash and/or how to rate-limit a single program

What are you on about?

Open up the torrent client, look for the limit upload/download settings. Jesus christ

I can't believe this thread lasted this long.

Anon, if you read my post, you would see that I was attempting to rate-limit my entire machine.
I can impose limits on individual programs, but if I want to stop ALL programs from being bandwidth hogs (literally any process that can use 100mbps+ will use it, including many that I cannot limit) then as far as I can tell windows has no built-in way to do that.

How many different programs are you using to download? Come the fuck on dude are you being retarded on purpose
>>62241343
Lmao you even replied to the wrong post.
Are you high right now?
>>62241387
Have you tried doing it on your R O U T E R ?

Ones that I've noticed include;
Firefox (downloading, accessing pages with lots of content)
Blizzard download agent
Anything done through a linux subsystem, including apt
git
Literally any package manager
As usual, /g/ doesn't know their shit. The typical way to solve this problem is by setting up QoS on your router. Hopefully you already have a good enough router to handle QoS processing, with an internet connection that fast.
Most people think of QoS as a way to prioritize certain types of traffic, but even if you don't prioritize traffic you can still use QoS to force your devices to share the bandwidth more evenly.
