using D-link DSL-2640B as reference:
-log in your ADSL modem
-click ADVANCED tab
-mouse over "Network Tools", click "Quality of Service". Just click OK for the prompt dialog
-click Add

Make this setting
-Traffic Class Name: my_web           (don use spacebar)
-Assign Classification Queue: wireless&Prece 1&Queue 1
-Protocol: TCP/UDP
-Destination Port Type: Single Port
-UDP/TCP Destination Port (port or port:port): 80

-click Add   again
-Traffic Class Name: my_p2p           (don use spacebar)
-Assign Classification Queue: wireless&Prece 8&Queue 8
-Protocol: UDP
-Destination Port Type: Port Range
-UDP/TCP Destination Port (port or port:port): 1024:65530

you might need to restart the router.
FYI, the web browsing is MORE responsive, but if P2P is heavy web still slow.
