That's absolutely bugger all when people get busy gaming and P2P-ing. Gaming needs frequent timeslots of small data packets - but very frequent and you don't want to be waiting for everyone else.
Actually I think that if you're on the newer overlay network the 20 meg users have the same upstream problem. Maybe Igni can confirm or otherwise.

hey I'm not that simples
I know I dont need 50 down for gaming but this connection is even worse. I just dont understand why
Your post probably explains it but its lost on me. If you ever have a boiler issue ask me for help and I wont baffle you with science
If I can be pointed in the direction of potential problems/solutions I'm certain CEO guy would look in to it, its a problem when networks tell him theres no issue though
