for the sdnog meetings, we use ubiquiti unifi ac-pro wireless APs.   we 
use a feature of the ubiquiti controller to do this.  this year, we 
limited individual devices to 4mb/s.   of course, that’ll just work 
for ubiquiti;  but other wireless vendors have similar controls.

at the hotel that some of us stayed at, the hotel was performing this 
sort of bandwidth limiting using their gateway that runs pfsense.
