Web Africa making P2P unusable

[Thor]

So I noticed of late that P2P is being absolutely annihilated on WA.

I make very extensive use of Teamviewer and all my computers share data between them using services like tribler which is also P2P

I also tried to download a few distro's via uTorrent and the speed barely reaches 10kB/s

Pop in my Afrihost credentials and everything runs FULL speed.

So my question - Is this a permanent thing now?

I also tested this during the 12pm - 6am period and the results was the same.

Edit: I have a capped account.

I agree with you! This has been going on for some while now, all my p2p barely moves. Currently on a capped account and checked the usage from 12-6, I get around 1-2Gb's done a hour. Usually got around 4.25 at normal speeds.

Hmm, I'll conduct some of my own tests and report back.

Last night these clowns had something funny happening. I kept getting capped message after midnight. I bought a gig and still got the same message. What a bunch of tards...

I bought some data from WA before (to test before I signed up) and was quite unimpressed with their service and the speeds I got. I eventually abandoned the data I bought and chose another ISP.

Seems linke you missed the following words in the OP: "Teamviewer" and "Distros"....

It mostly is yeah Don't have an issue with piracy, just with hypocrites who justify their 'right' to do it...
