Dropbox Sync Gobbling up Bandwidth
Hi,
I'd like to manage drop box Bandwidth usage. Any solutions?
Its currently gobbling up lots of bandwidth which maxes out my current capacity

Hey Githaiga - hope this finds you well!
First step here would be to change your bandwidth settings . To do so:
- Click the Dropbox icon from the system tray or menu bar (or right-click, on Linux).
- Click the gear icon (Windows and Mac), then select Preferences…
- Click Bandwidth (Windows or Linux).
- On a Mac, click Network and then click Change settings… in the Bandwidth section.
- You can manually adjust the bandwidth settings with the button next to Limit to under the Download rate or Upload rate sections.
- Enter the rates you prefer to continue.
I hope this helps and let me know if you need anything else. Cheers!
Is there a way to centrally manage this for a group of users or maybe even better via group policy?
Is there a way to Set bandwidth capping via Group Policy?

Hi thocus.
Welcome to the Dropbox Community.
There is currently no way for a team to set up bandwidth caps for their users.
You can post a feature request in our share an idea section if you wish.
[EDIT] I merged your topic here. In this discussion, Walter offers the steps to limit bandwidth usage of the Dropbox desktop app, per device. :gear:
Thank you!
