Bandwidth limiting on output is easy...just use the token bucket filter
(the following caps TX bandwidth to 50 MBits/s and RX bandwidth to 20
MBits/s):

tc qdisc add dev eth0 root tbf rate 50mbit latency 10ms burst 50kb
tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle ffff: ingress
tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: protocol ip prio 50 u32 match ip \
  src 0/0 police rate 20mbit burst 20k drop flowid :1

For more realistic simulation, you may want to check into something like
NetEm:
http://linux-net.osdl.org/index.php/Netem
http://developer.osdl.org/shemminger/netem/LCA2005_paper.pdf

With netem you can add large (and variable) delays, random packet
loss/duplication, out-of-order delivery, and various other 'real-world'
conditions.
