Default Is there any way to limit udp traffic?

Hello all !


There are around 30 PCs in the office connected by wired network, plus
untold number of notebooks or other portable devices connected via
WIFI.


The PCs are running XP and Win7.


The number 1 problem that I am facing is the udp traffics. They are
taking a big chunk out of the available bandwidth.


Can anyone tell me is there a way to limit the udp traffic?


Thank you !


What UDP traffic in particular ?

What bandwidth...
Intranet ?
Internet ?

The UDP traffics are eating up a big chunk of the incoming Internet
bandwidth.

I am from a 3rd world country where Net feed is very expensive, and
very limited. Our company subscribes to 2 net feeds, both 4Mbps.

The UDP are cutting the 8Mbps (2 X 4Mbps) net feed to less than 1Mbps.

As for what UDP traffic? I can only guess because I do not know how to
trace the UDP traffics:

There are workers who frequent Youtube

And then there are who downloading / streaming movies from places like
PPStream.

I have tried blocking the PPStream IP but they are by-passing the
block by using VPN.

As for firewall, it's on the PCs. We do not have a central firewall.
