MWEB Uncapped ADSL Feedback

[Wolfy]

hmmm with me too, i just thought MWEB throttled me seeing I abused my account a bit, didnt get an email to say so. But thats what I assumed. I wonder why people are getting such horrible speeds for the last two days

[MWEB Guy]

will I be able to play battlefield 3 this weekend MWEB guy?

Hi Wolfy,

If you have the game, I'm sure you will be able to play battlefield.

Another day and my connection is slow once again. It's always from early afternoon to about midnight. Everything is just plain slow. Is it Telkom or what?

Hi Nerhzelok,

Please see the PM I sent you.

Hi acidrain,

There are no reported issues with the news server. I have tested on our test area and I was able to connect and download.

Will Mweb send my an abuse warning if my P2P torrent downloads are running near line speed without any bypassing what so ever (maybe just on utorrent the "encryption" is on "forced" but otherwise thats all? (they downloading at 450-480 KBPS on a 4 Meg uncapped shaped)

Encrypted torrents bypass the shaping.

Ok I understand, but now I have disable encryption plus restarted the P2P program and its still running between 440-490 KBPS, should i be concerned and put my own limiter on or is it ok to let it run like this?

MWEB Guy would have to answer this, but AFAIK, if you are running torrents unencrypted, that's fine -- you can leave them to run at whatever speed they go at, because the shaper will take care of it.
