It sounds like VM are having a disaster. Hopefully they are planning to finesse the policy and the protocols/filters etc. Although if that is there plan, the project management has been horrendous thus far.

I cant comment on my VM speeds currently as I'm at my uni house, where we have Sky Broadband.

The Sky connects at 10MB (albeit advertised as up to 20MB) but no traffic shaping at all and I CAN consistently max out the 10MB connection downloading from Powerusenet - I don't by the way!

If VM is as bad as this thread suggests then it would appear I am getting a far better deal with Sky now than I do with VMs 20MB package.
