Hello! No, this isnt another "i can't get my wireless network working!" post. Its more of a curious question. I understand that any wireless router functions as a switch, ie that net packet flows are distributed amongst those who are connected to it. However, how strict are routers when it comes to actually dishing out the bandwidth out to respective clients? I am with three other frequent users on the same router, but although we can all connect at the same time, if one person hogs the bandwidth, they take the whole kit and caboodle! This occurs often to the extent that my net traffic is denied totally (funnily enough this is no issue with the person with a Mac... damnned Microsoft networking ). Anybody have any insight?
