Why don't you guys just be more severe with the P2P shaping during the day?

Noooooooooooooooo


OpenWeb works perfectly don't change anything I say!

Until it takes you 10 minutes to download a 200KB Gmail attachment on a brand new account that's never seen a torrent or a download.

Got an email today for an unpaid debit order for an username that I haven't used in a few months. Wonder if I've been paying for someone else's internet.
It's very sad, when OW works, it's probably the best internet service you can get. With all the issues in between, I'm starting to wonder if it's worth it.

Hey guys, I am a new OW subscriber and very happy.

I would just like to know where to see whether I am shaped or not?

At the moment downloads are VERY slow. I am on a 10mbps line with the silver uncapped package.

Between 7am to about 5pm the network is shaped to give priority to business.

post stats

Everything except the downloads work perfectly.

Which stats? Trace routes?

 

[thomascmyk]

And I posted this now because a download at 7 was going abetween 1 and 20 kb/s on a 10mbps line.

Sigh

 

[marine1]

Yes I think that may help us

 

[marine1]

Right now, I am downloading at around 900k on 10mb Gamers.
When this account works it works let me tell you

[marine1]

[marine1]

Go into your router and look under stats.

[thomascmyk]

But...marine1 was doing so well...

 

[i.got~issues]

Hmmmm... on my new login, browsing and everything is super, just downloads seem to be capped at around 45KB/s-ish.

nVidia drivers never broke 50, and now Opera browser sits around 35.
No other downloads, just TuneIn Radio streaming a 56kb station.



Same download on backup account;
