Hi, I guess this is a problem almost everyone with a roommate may have to encounter. I have a roommate that just constantly download p2p using the chinese software xunlei. I have to admit that software makes download very fast... and i mean very. I have the router connect to me with cable and he is using the wireless. I have WRT54GS v5.0 the one that can't install DD-WRT or Tomato. I was wondering is there anyway without having to know his ports for xunlei to limit his bandwidth? I have 10Mbps connection through comcast.

Interesting. I don't remember if the Linksys supports QoS, but it really won't help much anyway. What you can do is change the connection speed for the wireless. Under Advanced Wireless Setup, you should be able to drop the transmission rate to 6Mbps.
