Half speed ahead !

[bb_matt]

Not a complaint as such, but I've been at around 8k per second and below all day (128k package)

I guess that's the average and norm - I can live with it for 50% of the time.

No problems my side, full speed the whole day and even a little more here and there.

Fantasy is what people want, reality is what they need.

128K package here,

Peak hours averaged 10kB/s, offpeak average 15kb/s.

Not too shabby eh... except for the damn signal going wierd today. I am still itching from the re-adjustment of the antenna in the loft... dammit. Oh well, at least signal strenght is up from 8% to 15%, and from 2 lights to 3.

*scratch*

Today, avg speed peak 8K/sec avg -- off peak 6K/sec avg.

Yip. Its back to how it was last week.

Not much I can do about it except hand over my money, bend over and smile []

and pray for fair speed distributions..

I dont know why I cant just get the same thing everyday.

Getting 3-5k today on my 256...Phoned them and complained. Told them that a modem is even faster for much less a month. Takes up to 4 mins to load freakin news24's site.

Still no probs on my side, its not an all over thing

Fantasy is what people want, reality is what they need.

What concerns me, and maybe ProAsm can assist here, is that people on the 128K package are getting the same throughput, even better than people on the 256K package. I used to peak at about 28-30K, now I'm lucky if I see 11K. I think whatever control measures that are in place to sub divide the bandwidth is not very effective, or it doesn't even exist. Howcome some users are happy, some saying that it is actually faster (Getting 15K downloads on a 128K), whilst others on the 256K are so sloooooow.

 

[bb_matt]

Good point - I wonder how widespread that problem is ?

I'd sure be piss3d off if I only got 128k speeds or less on a 256k.

I was just getting 15k per second on my 128k line, so the bandwidth fluctuation is obviously normal to an extent.

 

[privet]

yup- I am also on halfspeed. 128k not getting over 8K/s... where I should be hitting the 13's and 14's easily...
