Use the slider to specify (in
percentage) the amount of bandwidth you
want your device to use.
Under “Upload settings,” check the Limit
how much bandwidth is used for uploading
updates to other PCs on the Internet
option.
Use the slider to set (in percentage)
the amount of bandwidth you want to
dedicate for uploads.
If you want to limit the amount of data
your device uploads per month, you can
also check the Monthly upload limit
option.
Use the slider to set the upload limit

It should be noted
that the upload settings will only work

from other PCs using the PCs on my local
network, and PCs on the Internet option.
However, if you’re looking to minimize
the data speed usage, you should be
using the PCs on my local network option
instead.
