Yes yes and I should also be making a extra 10k a month. Lets stop pointing out the obvious.

Well your argument is moot.

No no, it's not. The rest of the world does not have "shaped" and unshaped"... they have..... the internet.

A "gaming account" is a marketing tool to make more money.

My MWEB 512k 'uncapped' is going to *****...they need to halt new sign-ups immediately (fat chance) and add more capacity (?). I'm only getting 2/3 of the bandwidth I'm paying for. It can't go on like this.

Oh oh, i'll have to get investigating which of my mates is hogging the line! I'm tempted to waste more of my life playing with a proxy.

Anybody know when MWEB relaxes throttling on newservers in the evening? I switched from Afrihost to MWEB yesterday and my 384kbs line is downloading @ around 6kb/s on the new MWEB account and around 10kb/s on the old Afrihost one. Seems a bit disappointing considering I changed to avoid Afrihost's overzealous policies

I want to thank the guys at MWEB for great service so far. Keep it up guys

 

[eafreak]

I am unable to get better than 9 kb/s downloads on my 384 account with mweb

 

[randomwalsh]

seriously does anyone get close to their full speed when downloading torrents after hours?

 

[drukkie]

News runnning at a steady 100KB/s hopefully it will increase later...
Astraweb on 4 meg...

PS anyone know where we can get news servers over http?

Yes , I do. Usually around midnight. But I'm not concerned about my Torrents speeds that much anymore , as I can get everything via HTTP which is a lot faster 24/7


EDIT : 22:12 my torrents are now going full speed.

 

[gregmcc]

This are going pretty slow at the moment. Getting around 180k via nntp Its been like that the whole day.

Easynews.

100K from rapidshare. Going pearshape ala afrihost rather quickly it seems

 

[hambone]

This is a shaped service, and we all knew it. Still my browsing is superb, so I cont complain. Youtube awesome. E-mails awesome. My downloads go at night, queued and they have finished downloading this morning. Thus I'm getting what I paid for.

 

[drukkie]

Easynews.

mmmm too expensive paying 11 dhollars for unlimited at astraweb...

 

[PhreeMe]

Yeah I was concerned about throttling, but my linespeed still reports full speed via speedtest and a normal 'test' http download runs flawlessly.
The one thing I do want to know - even with some saying Youtube runs great - is whether Mweb includes this in their shaped services or not?? The last few nights haven't been the greatest when trying to stream on my 4mb line.... and again, this is when my line can download at full speed.

And no, Im not downloading while I try and stream...
