Right now, we currently provide open WIFI to our customers, vendors or whomever which sits on a 6meg DSL line. MOST of the time we do fairly well but there are times when 1 or 2 users pretty much take down the whole thing by streaming content off of Amazon or whatever.
We block what we can with OpenDNS so video streaming does not tear us apart except when Amazon video is used, can't seem to block this.
The system is setup different throughout the place deepening on location. In most buildings we have Cisco AP's driving corp and open wifi, others we have Unifi and Linksys so this makes it more challenging. Moving all to Cisco or Unifi is not an option.
What I want to do is limit the bandwidth so one user cannot take down the whole thing. We don't want to spend a lot of money either. Right now the main router is a Cisco 877 device. I have used PFSense and Untangle but I'm not sure how or how well either of these would work, I've never used them for this reason.
We currently handle 150-200 devices, mostly phones/tabs. If I could get some recommendations on how to handle this that would be great.
Thanks
