Question about the Wireless 108G Gaming Router

My question about the Wireless 108G Gaming Router is:

I checked out the page for the Wireless 108G Gaming Router, it says priorities can be set for:

Data
VOIP
Media
Email
Games.

And I need it to down-prioritize the torrents/ftp can any one confirm it has the advanced settings for torrents and ftp ? Or possibly the only options are the ones above ? As downloading from torrents and surfing the net would both be classed as "Data" which would make the router useless to me.

Does any one know if it can limit the download speed of say downloading a large file from a html download link such as www.example.com/example-file.mp3 without at the same time limiting surfing speed ?

Thanks !
Mike

The post is asking about info for a router which is to be used on a network to stop those using p2p software from taking all the bandwidth, not asking for support for p2p.

A different way of asking would be:

Can the router prioritise individual ports ? For example I would have every port de-prioritised apart from port 80 and the ports which voip software uses.

If any one knows i'de appreciate the info before I go ahead and buy it.

Thanks
Mike
