Traffic shaping or bandwidth control is best done with "tc" and parts of the linux kernel. The tc tool allows you to specify traffic in classes and give each of these traffic classes certain priority and up/download rates. This works very good overall and allows you to define very precise traffic types and bandwidth limits. The tc tool comes with the "iproute2" package and requires certain kernel modules/features to be enabled. More info - read the http://lartc.org/howto/ - traffic control howto. (I can give example configs if requested).

The easiest solution is to setup squid. It's a very flexible web cache/proxy that can speed up web page lookups and also act as a transparent proxy (great for multi-pc home setups). Just install the "squid" package and configure it.
