If they want to use my internet, I don&#8217;t mind as long as they don&#8217;t go crazy. Earlier, I created a separate <a title=\"Tomato Shibby Guest Wireless\" href=\"http:\/\/somethingk.com\/main\/?p=323\">guest network<\/a>\u00a0and now I want to limit its bandwidth. By limiting this, I limit how much streaming, download, uploading, etc. my guests can do per second. This can all be accomplished in the <strong>Bandwidth Limiter<\/strong> section in the tomato web GUI (default 192.168.1.1).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Under the Bandwidth Limiter for LAN, enable the the limiter. This part kind of sucks. My network is setup to include a dedicated bridge for my personal network (br0) and another for my guest network (br1). Your network may be different. In order to limit the guest bridge (br1) I had to set a limit on my personal bridge (br0). I chose to set the limit ridiculously high (300 Mbps) on my personal so as never interfering with my experience. The picture shows my settings below.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/somethingk.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Screen-Shot-2014-01-05-at-8.34.54-AM.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-334\" src=\"http:\/\/somethingk.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Screen-Shot-2014-01-05-at-8.34.54-AM.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2014-01-05 at 8.34.54 AM\" width=\"614\" height=\"339\" srcset=\"https:\/\/somethingk.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Screen-Shot-2014-01-05-at-8.34.54-AM.png 1023w, https:\/\/somethingk.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Screen-Shot-2014-01-05-at-8.34.54-AM-300x165.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 614px) 100vw, 614px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">For my guests, I cut down their use to 5 Mbs download.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/somethingk.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Screen-Shot-2014-01-05-at-8.34.57-AM.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-335\" src=\"http:\/\/somethingk.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Screen-Shot-2014-01-05-at-8.34.57-AM.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2014-01-05 at 8.34.57 AM\" width=\"596\" height=\"281\" srcset=\"https:\/\/somethingk.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Screen-Shot-2014-01-05-at-8.34.57-AM.png 993w, https:\/\/somethingk.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/Screen-Shot-2014-01-05-at-8.34.57-AM-300x141.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 596px) 100vw, 596px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Save it and you did it!
