Re: Oversubscribed areas?
its a good and bad idea.
There is nothing wrong with throttling to maintain latency and packet loss as long as its a temporary fix with the long term fix been more capacity.
The problem is isp's see it the ££££ signs, and if they manage to throttle successfully then they deploy it as a permanent strategy "in place" of extra capacity.
Three are the virgin media of mobile, they have a chronic congestion problem due to over utilisation of their network, so I wouldnt be happy with what they doing either.
Also if VM were to throttle bad areas they would be forbidden from selling unlimited broadband in those areas.
