Wget: How to Set Download Speed Limit?

There’s a possibility to manipulate the speed of files we’re fetching using wget.

All you have to add is additional parameter at the end of your request URL. For example:

wget https://az412801.vo.msecnd.net/vhd/VMBuild_20131127/Virtual_PC/IE10_Win7/IE10.Win7.For.WindowsVPC.part001.exe  --limit-rate=128k

Take a look at:

--limit-rate=128k
