To prevent unused bandwidth from being shared across your network (which we
do not recommend), do the following in the Bandwidth Allocation pane:
a. Click the Bandwidth Allocation menu icon.
The Settings pane opens.
b. Clear the Share Excess check box.
The bandwidth that you allocate to each device is now the maximum bandwidth
that the device can use. This setting applies to both the download bandwidth
and upload bandwidth.

Reset the Bandwidth Distribution
You can reset the bandwidth to default settings so that the router allocates each device
an equal share of the bandwidth. You can reset the bandwidth distribution for download
bandwidth and upload bandwidth separately.
