Is there any way to force bandwidth sharing between computers, so that one computer cannot be using all of the bandwidth?

do you mean 2 computers connected to 1 router; if so, the router should load balance automatically
if that's not what you're talking about, please clarify your LAN topology -
Sorry for the ambiguity...
I have a wireless router with several computers on a high-speed Internet connection. If one person is downloading large files then all of the other users' connections grind to a halt. -
you could use a program called NetLimiter. It will allow people on your network to police themselves and not take up all of the bandwidth.

Yes. Some higher-end routers will also allow QoS (Quality of Service), which means that one type of traffic (http or bittorrent or whatnot) won't drown out all other traffic. I'm not at home, but I believe even my WRT54G has that option. If not, you can set up a Linux/OpenBSD router and limit things that way

i am also looking for something like this.... any other routers out there that can perform download/upload bandwith? like for this IP, i will only be allowing 56kbps... and this ip 128kbps... etc etc
