  • Yeah as others have hinted at this is going to be easier with a router/network level feature.

    I’m sure there’s a way to do this by setting up a special virtual interface, limiting the bandwidth on that interface and then using iptables to redirect the apt traffic to that interface or something to that effect but I’m not a network engineer and I don’t have the experience to help with something like that. There might also be a way to do this with cgroups to limit the bandwidth but again that’s above my level of expertise.

    Gnome is the desktop environment. You may have gnome already installed if that’s what your OS uses, otherwise you probably have KDE. There are others but those are the 2 big ones.

    The Desktop Environment is what gives the OS its look, and typically which GUI programs are installed by default.
