Claim:
1. A method for communicating via a network interface of a computer device, the method comprising: simultaneously displaying on a graphical user interface a plurality of bandwidth adjustment slider interfaces, wherein each of the plurality of bandwidth adjustment slider interfaces includes a numerical field that indicates an associated percentage of an available bandwidth between the network interface of the computer device and a network, wherein the plurality of bandwidth adjustment slider interfaces include a first bandwidth adjustment slider interface and a second bandwidth adjustment slider interface; receiving, via the first bandwidth adjustment slider interface at the computer device, a first user input indicating a first relative amount of bandwidth allocated to a first application executing at the computer device; receiving, via the second bandwidth adjustment slider interface at the computer device, a second user input indicating a second relative amount of bandwidth allocated to a second application executing at the computer device, regulating communication via the network interface of the computer device based, at least in part, on the first relative amount of bandwidth allocated to the first application and the second relative amount of bandwidth allocated to the second application.
