Poor service!

1 Attachment(s)

Could some kind person please explain why I have such startlingly low speed
on my supposed up to 20mb connection? Please take the time to view the attached jpg file. Time and date were Sun 07-11-2010 approx 22-15. All sensible comments are welcomed. Coelian

Re: Poor service!

If it was a torrent or NNTP file you were downloading then it may be the new traffic management protocol restricting your download speed.

Hi folks, connection speed seems to be ok, see attached jpg. The peaks are the results of this forums' speed test, so it looks like the lag is down to the "Highwinds" servers. No P2P or torrents. Coelian

Re: Poor service!

Just being pedantic, but Virgin have throttled filesharing ie ( usenet AND p2p). usenet is not peer-to-peer, by definition. But do carry on :) It will probably become like the 'hacker/cracker' thing.
