Hi

i wanted to make network slow between two systems. I am testing the network in the lan so i wanted to make the lan speed slow so that i can test something which is related to my testing. i need software to make it slow and if u have any other idea to make it slow plz make it possible

Plz help as soon as possible

Slap your Network cards down to 10mbs in the NIC Properties. They may also be software that will throttle down the switch. More info on your Network would be nice, What hardware you are using and what its current speed...Remember, do not give out anyting that might allow someone to hack in like IP addresses or Passwords.

If you have a look on www.download.com, there are lots of bandwidth monitoring utilities. One of those may be clever enough that it can alter the bandwidth for you. Alternatively, set up a batch file to repeatedly copy large files between PCs or servers on the LAN. This will consume network bandwidth and you can set a similar batch file going on multiple machines if you want to slow it down more. Bear in mind that you don't want to set 10 machines to copy files from one server, otherwise you'll find that the bottleneck will be the server's hard disk speed, not the network bandwidth. Also, you don't want to run it on the actual PCs that you are testing, otherwise your test results won't be worth anything.
