每次连接到免费且强大的WiFi网络时，人们都会情不自禁地过火。他们将开始下载电影、电视节目、更新他们的设备、下载大型软件设置文件或游戏等。现在，如果您是提供此免费WiFi的人，您一定会在结束时感到口袋里的紧缩一个月同时支付互联网账单。除此之外，如果多个人连接到您的WiFi并积极使用它，这对您来说意味着更少的带宽。这是无法接受的。我们理解拒绝朋友和亲戚，有时甚至是邻居的WiFi(WiFi)似乎很粗鲁当他们要求密码时。您最终会与经常无情地消耗您的带宽和数据的多个人共享您的密码。因此，我们在这里为您提供一个简单、优雅和谨慎的解决方案来解决这个问题。
您可以选择降低他们的互联网速度并限制他们的带宽，而不是直接阻止人们连接到您的WiFi网络。(WiFi)这样做不仅可以避免您因过度使用互联网而过度支付费用，而且还意味着您可以获得更多带宽。最好的部分是您可以自己轻松完成此操作，甚至无需使用任何第三方工具或软件。大多数现代WiFi路由器都提供了相当不错的管理选项来控制一些参数，如互联网速度、可用带宽、访问时间等。您还可以阻止某些网站(block certain websites)以及可能成为潜在黑客的流氓接入点。在本文中，我们将讨论各种类似家长锁的功能，您可以利用这些功能来防止他人占用您的互联网。
如何限制 WiFi 的 Internet 速度或带宽？(How can you Limit Internet Speed or Bandwidth of WiFi?)
使用 WiFi时速度不够快的原因是因为使用WiFi的人太多。默认情况下，WiFi路由器在连接到网络的所有设备之间统一分配总可用带宽。这意味着连接到网络的设备数量越多，您的互联网速度就越慢。为自己预留更多带宽的唯一方法是限制其他设备的带宽。
这可以通过访问路由器设置来完成。( router settings.)如前所述，每个路由器都有其单独的固件，可用于编辑多个设置。互联网(Internet)速度和可用带宽只是其中之一。要将特定人员或设备限制为有限的互联网连接，您需要知道他们的MAC 地址(MAC address)或 IP 地址。这是唯一的识别来源。您可能不想犯错误，因为它可能会不必要地惩罚错误的人。
如果您拥有正确的MAC地址，那么您可以轻松设置带宽上限，进而设置该人有权获得的互联网速度。您可以为多个用户或可能除您之外的所有用户设置限制。

How to Limit Internet Speed or Bandwidth of WiFi Users
Рeople can’t help thеmselves from going ovеrboard eνery tіme they are connected to a free and strong WiFi nеtwork. They will begin to download movies, TV ѕhows, update their device, download large software setup files or games, etc. Now, іf you are the one prоviding this free WiFi, you will definitely feel the pinch in your pocket at the end of the month while paying thе internet bill. Apart from that if multірle people are connected to your WiFi and actively using it, it simply means less bandwidth for you. This iѕ unacceptablе. We understand that it seems rude to deny friends and relatives or some times evеn the neighbors the WiFi password when they аsk for it. You end up ѕharing your password with multiple people who relentlessly consume your bandwidth and data regularly. Therefore, we are here tо provide you with a simple, elegant, and discreet solution to this problem.
Instead of directly preventing people from connecting to your WiFi network, you can choose to reduce their internet speed and limit their bandwidth. Doing so will not only save you from paying excessively for overusing the internet but also mean more bandwidth for you. The best part is that you can easily do this yourself without even using any third-party tool or software. Most of the modern WiFi routers provide pretty decent administrative options to control several parameters like internet speed, available bandwidth, hours of access, etc. You can also block certain websites and rogue access points that could be potential hackers. In this article, we will discuss the various parental lock like features that you can utilize to prevent others from hogging your internet.
How can you Limit Internet Speed or Bandwidth of WiFi?
The reason behind not getting enough speed while using the WiFi is because too many people are using it. By default, a WiFi router uniformly divides the total available bandwidth among all the devices connected to the network. This means that the more the number of devices connected to a network, the slower is your internet speed. The only way to reserve more bandwidth for yourself is to limit the bandwidth for other devices.
This can be done by accessing the router settings. As mentioned earlier, every router has its separate firmware that can be used to edit several settings. Internet speed and the available bandwidth are just one of them. To restrict a particular person or device to a limited internet connection, you need to know their MAC address or their IP address. This is the only source of identification. You probably wouldn’t want to make a mistake as it might unnecessarily penalize the wrong person.
If you have the correct MAC address, then you can easily set the upper limit for the bandwidth and in turn, the internet speed that the person will be entitled to. You can set restrictions for multiple users or probably all users except you.
What are the pre-requisites to Limit Internet Speed or Bandwidth of a WiFi?
Before we begin with the process, you need certain important information to access the admin settings of a router. To limit the internet speed for other users, you need to set a new rule for the router. To do so, you need to open the device’s firmware and go to its Advanced settings. Here is a list of information that you need to acquire before that:
1. The first thing that you need is the IP address of the Router. This is usually written down at the bottom of the router. Depending on the brand and model of your router, it could be either be on a sticker pasted at the bottom or engraved at the sides. 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.0.1 are some of the most common IP addresses for routers.
2. The next thing that you need is the Username and Password. This, too, can be found on the bottom of the router.
3. If it is not there, then you can search for it online. Google the brand and model of your router and find out its IP address, username, and password.

What are some of the Other Restrictive measures that you can set for a WiFi network?
As mentioned earlier, limiting the Internet speed or Bandwidth isn’t the only thing that you can do to prevent people from misusing or exploiting your WiFi. Given below is a list of measures that you can take to avoid others from overusing your internet connection.
1.Set Active Hours – You can limit the availability of internet access to certain fixed hours in a day and for certain days in a week. For example, you can restrict internet access on your office WiFi network to office hours and weekdays only. This will prevent employees from misusing the data.
2. Set up Guest Access – Instead of giving out the actual password for your WiFi network, you can set up Guest Access. This allows internet access to people for a short duration of time, for example, you own a café or restaurant, then it more sensible to grant customers temporary guest access for the duration of which they are in your establishment. A guest network is a separate network, and this does not affect the internet speed of employees. You can easily set a bandwidth limit for the guest network so that despite heavy traffic, the internet speed for the employees are not affected.
3. Set up Internet Filters – Another alternative is to block certain websites on your network that consume a lot of data and cause a distraction for your employees. For example, employees in your office network might be wasting too much time watching YouTube videos or scrolling through social media. This not only reduces the available bandwidth for other users but also reduces productivity. Using your router admin settings, you can easily block multiple websites on your network. You can also apply internet filters and review security settings to prevent outsiders from gaining access to your network or stealing your data.
