Palatkik Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Anyone notice that torrents are not downloading at any usable rate this week? I've had trouble with TOT and True ISP's. Cannot download anything above 5kbps since Tues. Speednet tests showing network is normal and everything else running fine. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous God Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Haven't used true since Wednesday - but they have a very good torrent policy, TOT I have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waerth Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 NG what is their policy? Sometimes in the past I had the same problems as described above. And sometimes they simply fly in at max speed (I have 5 mbps). Unfortunately up is still only 256 kbps so my share ratios take a long time to get even :\ W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khunsanuk Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Hi, Coming in slowly today, but only 1 torrent downloading (at ~20-25Kb/s on a 4Mbit line) so could be the torrent itself. Sanuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palatkik Posted August 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 When I switched from True to a VPN access torrent speeds changed from 1kbps to 200 kbps. Previously was getting over 450kbps without VPN until the throttling started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doxx Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 I'm on True and I've been getting very slow speed over the last few weeks. Some movie torrents have taken me more than a week to download and my service is 4Mbits... I am also thinking they are throttling P2P downloads.

rookie Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Same with TT&T (MaxNet in Pattaya)... D/L speeds have varied the last month or two. Sometimes, with my 3/1mb-U/D connection, I'll get a mere 5-25 kBs D/L speed; other times 250-325 kBs, regardless of the number of seeds. Yet, prior to the last month I'd usually get 400-450-kBs when connected with a decent amount of peers. Yep, I think they are limiting P2P D/L's.

Palatkik Posted August 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 The rest of the basic True package is great at 599THB. I even seem to be getting 5mbps D/L if speedtest.net is to be believed. Guess need to find a good VPN for SE Asia is current task in hand? The one I have based in CA is maxing out at only 1.5mbps and p2p downloads at about 350kbps.

khunsanuk Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Hi, Well if they are throttling it doesn't apply to local peers. Downloading at 475Kb/s now on a 4Mbit connection. All speed coming from Thai peers though. Having said that my web browsing sucks big time at the moment. Huge problems connecting to sites, often have to reload several times before a page will fully load. Problem seems to be linked to finding domains though, so perhaps a DNS issue. Fuck knows where the problem is though, my end or True's? Sanuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
