Odd title, I know, but try to bear with me...
Having a bit of an issue. My PC is set up in a room, where someone else also has a PC. The other person is constantly downloading things off of torrents. And this slows down my internet to a crawl. It takes 5-8 seconds to fully load Hardforum.
Asking nicely to not download so much trash has not worked.
So, aside from disabling their PC or disabling the person, what can I do to keep my internet speeds up?
I am guessing there is nothing to do, since we are on the same connection, and I will have to suffer slow internet speeds as long as this other PC is downloading. Am I correct?
If not, anyways to keep my speed up to par while he can download?
Please note that I know next to nothing about net working, how routers ect. work...
