I work for a small company which has a few computers for public use. These machines are on a separate subnet, but still use the same T1 internet connection as the rest of the registers and staff computers.
Recently as a trial we decided to upgrade one of the windows 7 home machines to windows 10 - which in turn upgraded to windows 10 home. When Windows pushes out a new update this machine goes ahead and uses the full bandwidth, causing registers to hang, and other staff to have to stop work.
The only current solution I have found is a program called NetLimiter which runs as a service and simply limits traffic going in and out of this machine. Aside from NetLimiter or changing the OS are there any other options I can use to limit/restrict/stop Windows Update from destroying our bandwidth?
