I dont know if mweb changed something but for the passed ~2 weeks I cant download torrents over 100KB/s on a 4meg "premium" account.
Note this is my total download speed, some well seeded torrents are downloading at 2-10KB/s which is ridiculous.
I thought perhaps it was just some shaping during the week but even at night and during weekend I have seen no improvement.

I will be sending in a cancellation email tomorrow...

I would like some advice on which ISP offers the best 4 meg product for no more than R550 pm.

If you want to torrent, get business. Just 40 bucks more.

This has been happening to a few of us. I'm also fed up, also canceling end of month.

Exactly my choice for next month.

Hi FFF, just to confirm is it only your torrents that are slow ?

Also please note, torrents are given the lowest priority on our network and the speeds are therefore not guaranteed.

Give Crystal Web a try. To my utter amazements I could repeatedly download torrents at near full speed while the sun was out.
 
This whole weekend, even today was really bad. Not going higher than 80KB/s on NNTP.
 
Same here, I started a well seeded torrent Sunday evening, only 245MB file, by Yesterday afternoon it had only done 5%. Usually I can download a file like that in minutes.
 
Only improvement is seen from about 1am till about 6-7 am...
Even then, its not full speed.
