I would use netfilter + HTB something like -

$TC qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1:0 htb default 0
$TC class add dev eth0 parent 1:0 classid 1:1 htb rate 64kbit

$TC filter add dev eth0 parent 1:0 protocol ip handle 1 fw flowid 1:1

$IPTABLES -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 --dst ! 192.168.0.0/24 -j 
MARK --set-mark 1

Depending on what the PC does it may be nicer to priorotise empty acks / 
udp headed for the internet over bulk traffic.
