hey,
So a friend of mine brought her son over to stay for a few days, the trouble is his PS3 literally eats up all of my bandwidth... which really sucks because normally we can do LAN parties and all sorts without having any problems.
Obviously i'm busy during raid times which is when I need it, and naturally when he's most likely to be playing on the PS3.
So short of shelling out £50-£100 for a QoS router I'd only need for another 4 days, is there any way to throttle the PS3? I don't need to make his games suck... I just need to be able to talk on Vent and have people still hear me within the same 2 seconds.... Currently if I talk on vent while he's on the PS3 they don't hear me for a good 10-20seconds, and that's when I'm lucky. (not even going to go into what I hear, because it's impossible to understand what anyone says)
(Getting my latency in WoW down from 1-4kms would be really cool too!)
My current router is a standard Sky Home Broadband one. And all I can do with it is lock the PS3 out completely.
Some numbers:
Normal Latency:
WoW: 35-39ms
Vent: 20-50ms
With PS3:
WoW: 1000-4000ms
Vent: 10,000ms
