Hey

Yes i know how to secure it so they cant connect, but I have to ADSL lines in my home and I like the free principle so that peeps with no
broadband at home can browse , read email etc.
What i dont like however is the way they are stealing all the bandwidth away using torrents.
 
Just see here :

Is there a easy way to cap clients up/down speed and block away FTP/Torrent?
If there is, i would surely like to know. Ofcourse, i can hack their box and just make their boxes refuse to use torrents, but that would be just impolite.
 
Thanks in advance.
