Bandwidth Requirements

[FireHawk]

Is there an official posting of the amount of bandwidth that each of the
applications in Windows Messenger uses?

For example, what is the bandwidth use for:

voice
video
white board
file transfer

Is there a way to limit the bandwidth? If so, for each applications or as a
group (i.e. Windows Messenger)?

Thanks for the help.

Greetings,

There is no official posting of this because quite simply it really depends what's going on.
For instance, if you're in a voice conversation, but no one is saying anything, Messenger
will just cut off the audio and barely send anything.

Regardless, you can limit the bandwidth for audio/video but that's about it.
