    Hey, we have a bit off a problem at home where I would like for each device that connects to the wifi gets an even %.
    Like my brother downloads during the day and this really messes with the rest off our internet speeds or online gaming with the ps4
    So is there anyway that he just gets say a 1/4 off the speed or does it not work that way:o

    Yes it's called Quality of Service (QoS) - some routers implement it with varying degrees of success.

    Just give the rest of the network (everything but the ethernet port for the ps4 and his laptop etc) priority using QoS as above.

    What router do you have?
