I have a remote site that has a 6 mb symmetrical connection. The problem is this is a co-owned office and I can only use 3 mb of it. How can I do this on a 2811 router? Thanks.

Outbound, you could shape or police your traffic to 3 Mbps. (Although, if possible, I would suggest you use CBWFQ and define 50% bandwidth for both you and the other party. This would allow either of you to use more bandwidth if the other party wasn't using their bandwidth, but both would get 3 Mbps if you both wanted it.)
Inbound is a problem, unless you control the outbound on the other side of the link.

Ok I will look into CBWFQ, I'm not too familar with that though. Have any generic examples of config to do this?
Inbound limiting isn't a problem. Outbound they will be pushing large images, so that is where the issue is.

NB: Syntax likely incorrect.
ip access-list extended mytraffic
remark match against your traffic source addresses
permit ip x.x.x.x y.y.y.y any
class-map mytraffic
match access-group mytraffic
class-map theirtraffic
match any
policy-map split5050
class mytraffic
bandwidth remaining percent 50
class theirtraffic
bandwidth remaining percent 50
interface serial #
service-policy outbound split5050
If your still want to limit your bandwidth, even when excess is availble. You could do this.
policy-map restrictbandwidth
class mytraffic
bandwidth remaining percent 50
shape average percent 50
class theirtraffic
bandwidth remaining percent 50
shape average percent 50
interface serial #
service-policy outbound restrictbandwidth
