Set up QoS (quality of service) support so that high-bandwidth long-term TCP sessions get reduced bandwidth. I happen to use a Linux gateway and the wondershaper QoS script. I think that some DLink home routers and Linksys routers can do this as well. I know that the Linksys routers with the custom firmware can do it. -- Zan Lynx address@hidden "Knowledge is Power.
