Title: daily cap
Post by: Andy70 on Nov 16, 2007, 17:37:03
Only joined this morning from fast.co.uk. Needed to clear quite a few gig of downloads from my schedule (over 4gb). Only i noticed early on after activation my speeds via p2p were running in the 400kbps. However, quite later on today i cannot seem to get over 100kbps with familiar torrents that i am accustomed with getting over 400kbps with my previous provider.

Bottom line is, does idnet have a daily cap or a restriction of how much you can download within the peak period before they cap you?

Answer is no. They don't restrict in any way, regardless of everything!

More likely, you have had a resync which has pushed your sync or profile lower. Maybe run a BT speedtest?

Short answer, no. Long answer, I don't P2P so can't tell you what sort of performance is normal. There's no throttling in the IDNet network though, so it could be an exchange VP thing.

Or what Lance said. :)

With p2p it all depends on other peers.

Generally with well seeded torrents I can push around 600kbyte/second.

No need for apology - I just thought I'd broaden your range.  8)
