Title: Severe throttling post NetNetrality Fumble
Post by: tp4tissue on Mon, 15 January 2018, 15:39:59

Connection throughput is ~930 Mbit.


I was looking at ~400 Mbit torrent bandwidth in months prior.

Now at ~125 Mbit torrents connection.

My streaming and DL speeds have remained the same, but my upload speeds are about half of what they were. Guess the government doesn't want creatives making content.

"the government" has nothing to do with "it" although they should, on the basis of the "commerce clause"

These ****s just let the dogs out and walked away.

What did you expect from one of the bankrollers of the repeal.
However, could just be a temporary local issue or maybe you stepped on a cable.

It's definitely throttling, because I can push through other data streams simultaneously to saturate the connection, but the torrent remains locked to the same rate.

Yes, it sucks, but...

As long as you are seeding, the speed doesn't matter, right? So why do you care what your upload speed is?

They would probably throttle your upload speeds regardless, as a residential user, since you aren't supposed to be running servers without paying for business, I'm assuming. It's probably in your ToS

An amount of throttling is to be expected,  I'm merely pointing out the Immense contrast ever since Net Neutrality.
