Ada beberapa trik yang bisa membatasi download yang sering menghabiskan bandwidth. Bisa menggunakan Squid Proxy dengan fitur delay_pools, bisa juga dengan menggunakan mikrotik. Tetapi menurut saya yang paling ampuh menggunakan squid proxy.
Ini beberapa tahap setting firewall pada mikrotik untuk membatasi download file extensi tertentu:
LIMIT EXTENSION ——————–
