This article discusses updating the firmware on your router to allow you to limit how much bandwidth each user has:

However, as previously mentioned, it requires updating your router's firmware, so if your router is unsupported, this will not solve your problem. Additionally, the feature you want, per-user bandwidth limiting, is only available in the paid version of the software.
