Looking for a way to limit bandwidth to my kids room!

question by KM | Easy

Hi, I own a few cheap netgear wired routers, but currently operate Linksys wireless one BEFW11s4 v3. Is there a way to limit internet connection to my kids computer? He is constantly downloading crap, and I think this kills my bandwidth. I also found this great company next doors to me, would any of the 3Com routers they sell work for my purpose?
