WLAN probs

by Tursas • 24 Nov 2010, 20:11 • Journals
So, I've got WLAN and a stupid sister who's listening to music from Spotify all day long, which makes my ping get to about 400. How can I limit her max net usage speed?
Was thinking of a 80% of the net for me, rest for her. But dunno how, so u tell me

if she has winxp, easy bash, use safe mode to install (no pw needed)
dunno about vista/7

Sneak up to her PC and set a BIOS password to it. Being a woman she is very unlikely to know how to reset CMOS.

Told her many times, then I take WLAN off and connect the cable to my pc.
After 2 mins she comes back, and takes the whole fucking modem with her ffs..

When you know, thats she needs to go somewher ask her if you can lend her desktop because you want to try to install smth which isn't working on your computer.

Ban her ip at router settings
▼
Tursas 24 Nov 2010, 20:43
If I do that, she comes complaining "MY NET ISN'T WORKING WHAT DID U DO?" and takes the cable to her pc, or modem to her room..

Set up some ssh server (I dunno if there's one for Windows, but wutever) on her PC and then start remotely shutting it down for the lulz when she's taking up too much bandwith.

slap her, and ask her what's she's thinking, listening all day to music and not making your sandwich

Install netlimiter on her computer.
▼
Tursas 24 Nov 2010, 20:47
As I earlier said, I don't have her pw, cant access her pc, If I could, i would have installed netlimiter already.

I read it right after sending my comment. I guess she named her windows profile to something and doesn't use the administrator profile.

1) Edit/Recover the password of the administrator profile (not of her profile).
2) Log on to the administrator profile. Install Netlimiter ulterior. I did it once, so it must be possible.

For admin pw recovering, I need a CD with that program on it?
Parent

Quazz 24 Nov 2010, 21:18
By default, administrator has no password, normally you should roll right in.

Deactivated7001 24 Nov 2010, 23:53
Yes, u need to write it onto a cd. Try quazz' suggestion at first. If the administrator profile doesn't appear on the log on screen, reboot again, press f5 all the time, start the safe mode, then u should be a able to log on.

Most decent routers these days have a bandwidth limiting option built into them, have you logged in and checked?
▼
Tursas 24 Nov 2010, 20:51
That one's old. Tried to look for a limit in options, but I didnt find one

start 9000 torrents and ruin her spocify stream instead
▼
Burneddi 24 Nov 2010, 20:57
Start seeding shit on public torrent trackers with full bandwith as a revenge. Neither of you will be able to use the connection, but hey, at least she gets a taste of her own medicine

E: lolcat ;(

block 4070 port from routter. That is one solution it should prevent login :) hf&gl

there's no need to install netlimiter on her pc. Use router QoS and set the bandwith per cent.
