We are adjusting the resource pool for our Unshaped users now, this change will then ensure each account receives the correct volume of bandwidth and not the reduced speeds that you guys are seeing.

When will this be complete ?

"Strange" how we can all have pretty much the exact same performance, no matter where we are, and no matter what line speed we have?

What a co-inki-dink? :whistle:
 
Makes you think if you downgrade to 4MB, will we get full speed or only 2MB?

Hi guys

We're starting to look better in the North, we're still working hard to see similar improvements in the South though. Our team are working tirelessly to have this sorted out, I know a lot of you aren't seeing the best results :(

More feedback should be available in the morning.
