Ding, ding, ding!

Get a Linksys WRT54G-TM router on eBay, flash it with DD-WRT Mega, set up a reserved DHCP for Yamaraashi-chan's MAC address, enable QoS, throttle her bandwidth down by IP address.

The WRT54G-TM is prefered, as it has much more ram and flash then other DD-WRT compatible routers, which is handy for logging and things like security certificates and the like.

DD-WRT adds a lot of functionality that you normally don't find on consumer routers. One thing you can do is adjust the output pow on the wireless. While some people like to turn it up to get more range, what I think is nifty is that you can put much better antennas on the router, and then turn down the power so that you are not radiating more than you need to outside of those parts of your property you want to cover. The other nifty thing that DD-WRT Mega has is OpenVPN. You can set up OpenVPN server on your router, and then install OpenVPN clients on your Mac, Windows, and Linux poratables, and access your network securely while out.
