I can tell you it isnt the speedtest's end.

also I host a speedtest server, if someone is getting sucky speeds on speedtest.net I will give the link via PM but wont post it in public.

I can know first hand if its been swamped and saturated.

Could you send me that link please, as we are not getting anywhere near the speeds they promised us.

The reason I ask is because on my 10Mbps which was a downgrade from 50Mbps so on DOCSIS3 I can download whatever I like (I have done maybe 15GB or more on occasions) before 4pm with no STM at all but soon after 4pm even pretty trivial usage results in it being STM'd if I did clobber it early on.

I wondered how long it would be before another L/10:1 user on overlay network noticed that?
I've observed the apparent lack of STM for some considerable months previous via my Cisco10k in Brighton, although in my case it would appear not to be applied at all.
I'll let "someone else" explain why if he so chooses to do so! ;)
