NetBalancer

Windows application for local network traffic control and monitoring

Visit NetBalancer

NetBalancer runs on Windows and works as a standalone application on a single computer. It uses a kernel-level network driver to enforce priority-based scheduling and bandwidth caps per process. Traffic can be filtered by application, protocol, port, IP address, network adapter, Wi-Fi SSID, and packet content. Rules can prioritize, limit, delay, or block traffic. The product also offers a Sync service for controlling multiple machines, a Windows toolbar, tray icon and widget, and interactive traffic charts.
