Do you need to limit the bandwidth to a particular amount that might
coincide with Ethernet speed?  For example, could you force a network
interface card or port on a switch to run at 100 mbps or 10 mbps, thereby
limiting consumption to the speed of the interface?

This isn't ideal, but another off-the-wall idea, since QoS was already
mentioned.

What kind of router do you have?  Do you have the ability of running DD-WRT
or Tomato or one of the various open-source firmwares on it?
