The Arcive of vBulletin Modifications Site.

In order to limit abuse, site downloaders, and other instances that increase site bandwidth significantly, it would be useful to limit bandwidth per user or per IP address. Is this possible?

i know some efficient tools that are used with CPanel, but in php, no idea...

the best idea would be to create a filter that block certain IPs *(in a whitelist) from downloading attachments... when needed.

you can use
mod_bandwidth
mod_ipconnlimit
both are apache mods which is very good for limiting the bandwidth

mod_cband
useful to limit all connections period to how much bw they will get to use, limit each ip to 128k dl speed etc etc
