Going off this throttling business (dare I say this?) but game ports are going to be throttled as well? And who wants a bet on when VM will start throttling the standard internet port (80 and 8080 aren't they?) |
Games cause problems on sky as well, thus why they no longer let you keep interleaving on (i believe?)
They use more uplink bandwith than you think and believe it or not there is alot more gamers than there is p2p users online at the same time, each card is only 38mbit and uplinks soon get saturated (this is the main reason for slow speeds, rather than people downloading 24/7)
