I am using a bash shell under Ubuntu Linux operating system. Sometime I need to restrict my own Internet bandwidth for all my shell applications such as ftp, sftp, wget, curl and friends. How do I limit the network speed under bash without setting up a complicated firewall and tc rules as described here?

You need to use a portable lightweight userspace bandwidth shaper called trickle. It can run in in collaborative mode or in stand alone mode. trickle works by taking advantage of the unix loader preloading.
Tutorial details
DifficultyIntermediate (rss)
Root privilegesYes (for installation)
Requirementstrickle
Essentially it provides, to the application, a new version of the functionality that is required to send and receive data through sockets. It then limits traffic based on delaying the sending and receiving of data over a socket. trickle runs entirely in userspace and does not require root access.

Installation

Type the following apt-get command under Debian / Ubuntu Linux to install trickle software:
$ sudo apt-get install trickle
Sample outputs:

Install trickle under CentOS / RHEL / Fedora Linux

First, turn on EPEL repo and type the following yum command to install trickle software:
# yum install trickle

How do I use trickle?

The syntax is:
 
trickle -u uploadLimit program
trickle -d downloadLimit program
trickle -u {UPLOAD_LIMIT} -d {DOWNLOAD_LIMIT} program-binary
 

Examples

Start ftp client limiting its upload capacity to 100 KB/s:
trickle -u 100 ftp
Start ftp client limiting its download capacity at 50 KB/s:
trickle -d 50 ftp
You can combine both options:
trickle -u 100 -d 50 ftp
You can pass other args to the ftp command:
trickle -u 100 -d 50 ftp ftp.cyberciti.biz
trickle -u 100 -d 50 ftp ftp.cyberciti.biz 8021

Use the wget command to download an iso file from openbsd.org ftp server:
$ wget http://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/5.2/i386/install52.iso
Sample outputs:
--2012-12-04 16:00:16--  http://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/5.2/i386/install52.iso
Resolving ftp.openbsd.org... 129.128.5.191

Saving to: `install52.iso'
7% [> ] 1,86,94,640 2.94M/s eta 79s
Now, use trickle to download iso file but limit capacity at 50 KB/s:
trickle -d 50 wget http://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/5.2/i386/install52.iso
Sample outputs:
trickle: Could not reach trickled, working independently: No such file or directory

Limit bandwidth in a single shell for all commands

Launch bash or ksh shell limiting its upload capacity to 250 KB/s, and download capacity at 500 KB/s:
trickle -d 500 -u 250 bash
OR
trickle -d 500 -u 250 ksh
Now, for all programs launched inside currently running bash or ksh shell will follow bandwidth shaper rules:
wget http://example.com/foo.iso
sftp file.mp4 user@server1.cyberciti.biz:~/Downloads/

Other options

From the man page:
 -h           Help (this)
-v Increase verbosity level
-V Print trickle version
-s Run trickle in standalone mode independent of trickled
-d Set maximum cumulative download rate to KB/s
-u Set maximum cumulative upload rate to KB/s
-w Set window length to KB
-t Set default smoothing time to s
-l Set default smoothing length to KB
-n Use trickled socket name
-L Set latency to milliseconds
