Limiting Bandwidth on web server

[Mr Miyagi]

I run a small website in my home and am now encountering a problem.... If a broadband user downloads a couple of files at once, the whole site locks up for other users... Funny thing is I can Remote Desktop AND FTP into it just fine during this time. As I type, there are 3 connections to my server from the same address and I cannot view my website (Just a blank screen and that "Bar" crawling)

RoadRunner Cable 512kbit up (2.5mbit down)
IIS - Patched (Windows XP Pro)
Linksys BEFSR41 Router
Netgear FA311 10/100 NIC
URL - www.kalistoanime.com

Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks

Well....Switched to Apache...

Still encountering the same problem. I dowmload two videos at once, site locks up.

Any suggestions?

both Apache and IIS will let you specify how much Upload bandwidth to limit

each of them in totally different location

your Upload = users download ;)

Currently how much bandwidth have you speficy, if any?

and what type of internet connection do you have?


Test your Upload speed

I use Roadrunner Cable. It can push about 512Kbit up, but usually sticks at 490-500Kbit.

I just need to know how to specify the bandwidth PER USER/CLIENT on IIS or Apache, not the bandwidth of the server itself.

I looked at the config file for Bandwidth, but can't seem to find it...Am I missing it, or is it in another config file?
