The work done was unrelated.
There are some known issues with P2P on uncapped, which should be resolved next month.

Slightly lower but I have a VPN session open, etc. (TI 2Mbps Uncapped):
Must be a coincidence, as I am sure, was the call I got last week from Telkom asking if I would like to downgrade to a lower speed connection :wtf:

oldhat, did you see this post in the other thread.

Will wait for improvements next month as you previously stated...Btw, a few of my neighbours on TI uncapped also getting poor torrent speeds. Just frustrating when others on TI uncapped(& MWEB uncapped) seem unaffected.

Logged fault, only reply was Telkom quoting their terms & conditions & stating that they consider the issue resolved
