Don't need all ports, only 1 port on the router, you then connect
directly to the router yourself and via the 1 limited port you use a
switch to connect the rest.
If the router runs QoS and the PCs are QoS enabled you can use that,

If you can't set QoS on the Pcs individually look in the router manuals
if you can set QoS per IP address.

It's been a while since last asked in 24HSHD, there were a couple of
routers but not SOHO types. A Linux box with multiple NICs and FW /
management s/w.
Maybe the best bet is the Linksys routers that run Linux, you get a lot
of control over those and most likely somone will have written an option
for b/w limits.

1)
Use a Linux box as the gateway, there are some traffic shaping tools
available.
As usual try www.google.com and some of the Linux news groups.

From a previous post of mine, this little box lets you set limits on
bandwidth usage.

Also a hardware device, GBP £1200 unit from www.blackbox.co.uk that
has BW management for 10Mbps Ethernet.
datasheet 10164 for
IP Mux II , product code LE1025C
datasheet code 24435 for
Bandwidth Manager, don't have the part code, try the datasheet.
===end paste===
If you go for the Linux method, not only do you get traffic shaping i.e.
it's possible to (assume ADSL is 1Mbit/sec) set PC1 500kbit/sec (50%)
and PC2/3 limited to 250 each (sharing the remaining 50%). Perl is
included, MRTG goes on easily. The reporting from the firewall log can
be manipulated and graphed as well. This would allow not only traffic
in/out but lets you count HTTP, Kazza and other traffic levels for
specific applications.
