An internet connection through cable or wireless is very common these days. Most Wifi connections come with routers with easy to use features. This makes it very convenient for people to use the internet. However, there is an annoying problem that most people connected to wireless face. When a lot of users use the network, some users constantly use all the available bandwidth by downloading torrent files or streaming high-quality videos.
So, how do you solve this issue?
The first that you can consider is to talk to the people directly. Ask them to adjust their internet usage so that they don’t use up all the connection and stress the router. In case they ignore your suggestion, you can cut off their internet connection through ARP spoofing. However, it is advised to use this at your own risk as misusing this method is unethical.
