Bandwidth Manager helps you control download and upload rate for every computer in your network. Computers can be limited with specified time and quota per session, day time when access is allowed and set to logout after inactivity.

Bandwidth software for download limiting is very suitable for Internet and game cafes as it tightly integrates with Antamedia Internet cafe software enabling automatic blocking of traffic when user logout. Every user and computer can have different download and upload rates.

Bandwidth Manager Features   

                         Windows Compatible

                         Windows software with user-friendly interface. It doesn't require any proprietary hardware so you can use any standard PC with two network cards to setup bandwidth shaper.
 

Bandwidth Limit Control (Traffic Shaping Management)

                        A Bandwidth limit is configured in Kb/s for each account separately and represents speed a computer's Internet connection speed.

With Bandwidth Manager it's easy to set higher bandwidth for some of your computers and lower bandwidth for others. Controlling individual users bandwidth insures one customer can not interrupt the activity of another.
 

Bandwidth Quota Control (Traffic Quota Management)

A Bandwidth quota is configured in Mbytes for every account and represents the total amount of traffic available to a customer. Example: A customer can download 10 MB in one hour. This option can be disabled if you want to limit only the connection speed.

Accounts

There are 3 ways to grant Internet access to computers in your network:
Using Accounts that specify the IP or MAC of a computer. If an IP/MAC is found in the database, the computer is logged in and displayed in the list
Autologin - If enabled, a computer is logged in with default options (download, upload, quota, time etc)
Using Antamedia Internet Caffe Server to fully automate the login/logout process. As soon as Member, Timecode or postpaid session is started, Server will communicate with Bandwidth Manager and allow Internet access to the computer where the customer started their session. At the end of the session, access is blocked to the same computer, disabling any Internet traffic. This can reduce bandwidth if some online game has remained active or if viruses, spyware or trojans are consuming your bandwidth.

Account Options

Quota (total amount of data in MB available)
Unlimited quota (if you wish to limit only download/upload rate)
Time left (If you wish to set limited time per session)

MAC Whitelist

Enables specified computers (identified by MAC address of network card) to pass-through the Bandwidth Manager. For example: allow your home computer to acquire access without any limitations.

Activity Log
