I’ve setup an old laptop with linux mint running jellyfin and arr stack in docker containers.

When I run it the Internet in other devices in the network becomes virtually unusable after about 10 mins of the containers having run.

I don’t really know what to do, so I wanted to ask for advice.

      If you’re using QBittorrent, you can throttle upload/download speeds in the settings. I believe it wants speeds set in kibibytes (KiB) so you’ll need to convert your megabit internet speeds to your desired kibibyte limit (say maybe 50% or less of your available bandwidth).

          If it does not help, try limiting the maximum number of active connections in qbittorrent.

          For the record, 100 Mbits is 12.5 Megabytes, or about 12,207 Kibibytes, so you’ll want to limit it to maybe 6,000 Kibibytes for it to be around half.
