Slow internet.

Can i throttle a specific MAC address and bittorrent downloads through a program?

The computer is connected to the router through LAN and the rest through WIFI. Everytime "someone" uses the WIFI (and uses bittorrent), internet crawls and it takes a minute to open google.

The router was provided by the ISP. It doesn't have advanced settings like throttling.

You can mac filter. But somebody with enough knowledge can spoof a mac.

Another option is to check the quality of service section, and throttle the QoS on torrents.
