Really not sure if I am posting this in the right place, so apologies if that's not the example.

I like dropbox's Photographic camera Upload characteristic, simply quite frequently I find that it volition saturate my internet connection and everything else on my network struggles. Especially if information technology is uploading video recordings off my phone.
Is there a way to identify a speed limit to the data upload charge per unit? Kind of like a bandwidth limiter for Android?

Many Android kernels got support for traffic shaping, so y'all can utilize the "tc" shell command to implement what you need. Mayhap there's some rooted app able to manage this for you lot, since it'due south quite a tricky task.

But this is non such a good thought. Instead y'all should implement the traffic shaping in your WiFi/Net router. If it doesn't support it native, I suggest y'all try some other software for it, e.g. OpenWrt, DD-WRT or Tomato.

Cheers.
I have Tomato installed on an Asus RT-N66U router, but the bandwidth limiting options but piece of work for LAN connections and not WLAN it seems.
A rooted app that puts a limit on a per app basis would be something I'd be happy to pay for.

Thanks.

Hard to believe it's not working for WLAN connections, and fifty-fifty if so, you can apply the rules on the outbound Internet connection scheduling on source addresses. I.e. yous can chose to implement the restrictions on either the receive- or transmit site. Do some more reading on QoS and I'm quite certain you'll manage to implement it as you lot need. Just information technology IS tricky, even with the Tomato GUI, and would exist every bit catchy as well using a rooted Android app.

And since I know it'south non a such a good thought to implement traffic shaping in the Android itself, I'm not going to write this app. ;)

Hey, I'1000 looking over internet for this exact affair, problem is my Milky way Tab is hugging my internet, I demand to limit it to say, 100kb/south up and down. My router is A-Link WNAP 3G router.

It would be even better to limit all WLAN traffic to 100kB/south considering my computer is hooked with an ethernet cable :victory:

Tin can someone assist me :)?

I.eastward. you can chose to implement the restrictions on either the receive- or transmit site. Do some more reading on QoS and I'grand quite certain you'll manage to implement it as you demand. Simply it IS tricky, even with the Tomato GUI, and would be equally tricky also using a rooted Android app.

Y'all are very wrong that information technology isn't a adept thought to implement traffic shaping. All new deject applications have Camera upload characteristic which clogs the upload of the whole network and so you cannot even surf with your calculator while photos are uploaded (non to say videos).
Traffic shaper would solve this things for sure! I would even pay for that app on appstore.

Dear Friend,

did you become what you was looking for?

because i am looking for an App which tin can control all or Each/ individual app to upload the files. as well
google+ Google photos, Google hangout, Etc. which i hate the most to upload my photos . for them i have rooted my note4 and install AVAST Anti-Virus + Firewall to preclude the app to access the net .

Because i know what app we allow to access the internet they take away our personal information along with videos and photos which we don't know because our smartphones are 24/7 connected with DSL hight speed cyberspace.

These type of Apps are fully controlled by the remote server to takeaway our data with minimum speed similar 10KB to 30KB per mint.

I accept already cake the apps to access in the internet, but some reason i accept to disable firewall, so most of the apps try to get updates, i need an app which tin command /let the app to upload in Bites not in KB or MB.

if yous have something like that please advise

awaiting your respond

Thanks
Ismail
