    You can do this by using a module for Apache called Bandwidth Mod. Even though this version is for Apache 2.2.14, I am using it on 2.2.21 without any problems.

    Grab the bw_mod.dll file from the link above, and put it into the Apache modules folder (usually bin\Apache\Apache2.2.xx\modules in your Wampserver installation folder) and then add this to your httpd.conf file:

    LoadModule bw_module modules/mod_bw.dll
BandWidthModule On
ForceBandWidthModule On
BandWidth    all 50000
MinBandWidth all -1

    Be sure to check out the readme file for this module as it comes with a lot of options.

    Hope this helps !
