My friend has a baby (small) wireless network based on 802.11b.
One of the users on the network has taken to hogging the
entire bandwidth out to the internet.

Is there a way to take a Linux box and put it between the
network and the internet and limit bandwidth to specific IP addresses ?
If so, what Linux application is required to do this ?

Thanks
