…why do you want that?

if you want to use a lot of your bandwidth for no reason you could download a bunch of stuff (e.g torrents), then delete them & download again

Open a ton of sockets and send a ton of requests.. There are 65535 ports you can use. Consider that 25, 80, 443, etc.. are usually reserved/in-use.

Because netflix on my ps3 is constantly stealing my connection strength, and i want to direct the majority of my network to my laptop

Setup QoS on your router.

How? I dont know. every router is different and every router has different options.

But.. This would make your Netflix useless ( buffer, buffer buffer… ), so i'm confused at how this will help.

Or are you mad that someone else in your household is constantly using Netflix and stealing all your bandwidth?
