It's to do with the time of day I have found. In the morning to early evening you can get max out on Newshosting with only 1 connection, but after 6, you may need to up it to the full 8.

Maybe traffic shaping, but more likely just congestion on the UBR you are on and some damn fool maxing out their p2p upload and buggering it for everyone else. It doesn't matter what port you are on if your UBR is under stress so I'm led to believe. I could be wrong.
