i'm still a beginner and i'm looking for a progra mwith GUI to set the maximum upload speed, ...
Can somebody help me?
Windows is a great GUI to do things like that.
You can accomplish the same thing with the aforementioned tools - my personal preference is ethtool - just type "man ethtool" and you'll be set. If you can't read documentation.. well, I'll leave it at that.
could you give me the arguments i have to give to ethtool to set the network speed to 15 kb/s for example?
I can't figure it out, i'm still new to linux
