How do I set a limit on the internet access speed of devices connected to the HUAWEI router |
You can view a list of all devices connected to your wireless network on the router's Manage Device page. In addition to prohibiting a phone or computer from accessing your wireless network, you can also set a limit on its maximum upload and download rate.
Method 1: Using AI Life App
- Connect your phone to the router's Wi-Fi network.
- Open the AI Life App, touch the corresponding router to access the router management screen.
- Then click Connected devices (or go to Devices > Connected devices), select the device you want to limit from the list of online.
- Touch Speed limit, then enable Speed limit and set the maximum upload and download speed for the device, then touch √ in the upper right corner to confirm.
Method 2: Using the web-based management page
- Connect your computer/phone to the router's Wi-Fi , or connect the computer to the router's LAN port using an Ethernet cable. Enter the default IP address in your browser address bar and log in to the web-based management page(check the nameplate at the bottom of the router for the default IP address).
- For routers that feature self-adaptive ports, you do not need to distinguish between WAN and LAN ports.
- If you are connecting your phone to the router's Wi-Fi network, switch your phone's webpage to the PC-based UI before performing the following operations.
- Enter the Manage Device page (Some routers need to switch from tile mode to list mode).
- select the phone or computer that you want to set a limit on, toggle on Limit Rate, and click the
icon in Speed limit Values to set the maximum upload and download rate.
