Well further evidence of the caps:

what I was saying was that usually P2P is used to download pirated movies, music, games etc. That's all i'm not saying the technology itself is ilegal. Also keep in mind that how P2P works specifically bittorrent if they add more capacity P2P will eat it faster and that eventually rises costs for everyone. So you have to actually MANAGE your bandwith correctly that is why i'm saying that they should shape the traffic when they have to or at least permit faster speeds than 2k. Have you noticed that since they started shaping the traffic we have not had low speeds or high latencies any longer?

Even though bittorrent has legitimate uses you must admit that illegal use is higher than legal use. I would be happy if onelink only capped the P2P during high traffic hours or when their network is very congested not all the time. You have to remember that they now offer VOIP and if the network gets laggy their VOIP service will be affected.

he has ares and the speeds don't go above 1kb and he doesn't know why this is happening.

consider DSL through PRW instead of DSL through PRT. PRW has no lag and normal speeds.

Dmax is not an alternative stay away from it. They have been having serious issues with latency and slow speeds. Too bad the OFFICIAL dmax forum died after users repeateadly pointed this out. For P2P in onelinke all you need is a bit of ingenuity that's it.

I have no problems downloading from bittorrent. I just use private trackers and newsgroups and I can pretty much download everything FULL speed. Make sure you pick a high port in utorrent/azureus, and enable encryption that helps a lot.

haha the problem is always the user. In my case they detected a problem in a transmitter in my area and even though it no longer disconnects my speeds are not the best.

nope you are not alone.

yes however my case is a bad transmitter support also said that everything was ok the technician came in and with a tester proved the line had problems that were not detectable by the modem.

right next to you and I have the same issues, I called them up and all they are going to do is send in a technician to see with his own eyes since they obviously don't believe me and the line stats say everything is working fine.

This is odd.

ok thanks it seems they are having some problems again, thought I was alone in this.
