Question
Is it possible limiting the download bandwidth used by Steam in some way? When I am downloading a game it greatly speed down or even block all internet activities in my house.
Answer
I don't believe Valve provide an option to do that. The Connection Type setting that Corv1nus mentions appears to have no effect.
You may find it easier to install a piece of software able to rate limit other programs than to use QoS. I just tested NetBalancer (free version) with Steam on Windows 7 and it works flawlessly. If you too are using Windows 7 you can safely ignore the warning about unsigned drivers; at least you can if you trust the software publisher.
