I know this can be done easily but you have to find out how these things works as I don't have used it and also not having any free machine to do tests...

What you have to do is to use Squid with "Squid2mysql" . In combining both u can allot desired bandwidth limit per month , per day etc to any client. Also you can use delay pools to limit bandwidth pipe. !
