This is what I was saying 5-6 weeks back, because the contention has increased, the trade off is a higher max speed but lower average speed. So peak time performance will be worse then what it was with 1/2/3mbit tiers. However during quiet periods performance should be better. Remember right now 'everyone' else isnt upgraded, their is still 2 more tiers to go, wether or not capacity will be put in place to cater for these people noone knows but I hope it will. For the last 2 nights I havent been able to get 10mbit at 3am, saturation is still present at a light level so when they did the auto upgrade earlier it has made a noticeable impact.
