It's interesting how big a difference the channel bonding makes, though not unexpected either. Fitting 200mb of bandwidth demand into 50mb was always going to have worse contention characteristics than fitting 800mb of demand into 200mb (actual numbers will be higher).

All comes down to statistics really.

But anyhow I'm glad things are a lot better for you now, and it does look like congestion in your area is actually in the same ballpark as mine; I was getting the same speeds as you while previously on 10mb, and now on 4x bonded channels ~25-35mbps is what it'll hit most days during peak times.
