# How do I adjust bandwidth quotas in WHM

Occasionally users may need to amend bandwidth usage on a ‘per cPanel account’ basis for one reason or another. The following guide can be used to help view, increase or decrease a users bandwidth limit accordingly.

1. To start, log in to your WHM Portal with your provided credentials:![](https://cdn.document360.io/d809f158-d4f4-47ff-83d4-18d9c9f7a04d/Images/Documentation/Screenshot%202026-01-12%20at%2012.55.43%E2%80%AFpm.jpg?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-09T17%3A10%3A13Z&se=2026-11-09T18%3A10%3A13Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=DU0b2XZQ3B4Q7iz2Bv%2FE2B%2FRxo%2BC71T3i3C8qa01ufs%3D)

2. Under **'Account Functions'** select **'Limit Bandwidth Usage'** (this can be seen in two locations):![](https://cdn.document360.io/d809f158-d4f4-47ff-83d4-18d9c9f7a04d/Images/Documentation/image-1687551399155.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-09T17%3A10%3A13Z&se=2026-11-09T18%3A10%3A13Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=DU0b2XZQ3B4Q7iz2Bv%2FE2B%2FRxo%2BC71T3i3C8qa01ufs%3D)

3. Select the desired account you wish to limit, then click on **'Limit'** at the bottom of the page as shown:![](https://cdn.document360.io/d809f158-d4f4-47ff-83d4-18d9c9f7a04d/Images/Documentation/Screenshot%202025-10-30%20161007(1).png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-09T17%3A10%3A13Z&se=2026-11-09T18%3A10%3A13Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=DU0b2XZQ3B4Q7iz2Bv%2FE2B%2FRxo%2BC71T3i3C8qa01ufs%3D)

4. Enter the new bandwidth limit next to the domain: ![](https://cdn.document360.io/d809f158-d4f4-47ff-83d4-18d9c9f7a04d/Images/Documentation/image-1687551477630.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-09T17%3A10%3A13Z&se=2026-11-09T18%3A10%3A13Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=DU0b2XZQ3B4Q7iz2Bv%2FE2B%2FRxo%2BC71T3i3C8qa01ufs%3D)

5. Once you have confirmed the correct value is in place, click **'Change'** and this will complete successfully with the new limitation.
