Re: Application Throttling/Management

hi all,
just thought i would get a word in, i am on the xl 20mb i get throttled every day and night to 4.5mb the only hours i do get full speed is from 12 midnight till 10am. I have been reading alot about vm on other sites. and why i dont agree with throttling i still think they have a good service. however this is my gripe. i hear they are testing the 50mb broadband down south some where and are going to roll it out soon for an un confirmed £47pm,
so what will they be throttling that down to ? the only reason why anyone would want 50mb would be for hd streaming,etc,etc
i also read some where that the cable lines were actually capable of carrying upto 150mb. so i cant understand why they need to throttle ???
this company have years infront of the old copper lines but i feel the way they are going they aint gonna have as many customers as they have now.
it was a kick in the teeth loosing some sky channels, now they come back to collect the teeth by capping ya !!!!!!
