Limit download over x filesize
| Posted by mystycs, 09-11-2013, 10:45 AM | | This is more of a network question rather than hosting but Is there a way to limit a download over lets say 20MB to throttle at 16KB? I am trying to limit files over 20MB to throtle at lets say 16KB a second knowing its 20MB. Basically i would have a server between the Modem and my computer to do this. Is there any such way or solution/software to do this?

Are you looking to limit speeds at home/office? From a website? If a website do you manage the server?
