	They seem to be experiencing a lot of problems. I did give them the benefit of the doubt and didn't jump ship like a lot of people did but if it continues I will have no choice. I wouldn't mind if they gave me the speeds my line can handle. I can get 250 no problem and was doin when I 1st got max. Its came right down again though and its definitely being throttled because if I dl more than one thing the speed goes up. Torrents are obviously also throttled but I haven't used any other p2p recently.

	f2s are gay now. I've been with them since my exchange was enabled in 2003 and i'm looking into changing this month. Dl speeds won't go above 150k/s with a ~2400k line. Shuold be at least 100k over that. Traffic shaping is taking the biscuit now. Went downhill quickly after pipex bought them.

Starting to get annoyed with Ukonline, havent seen over 30kbps on bittorrents for a few months, usual speed is between 3 and 9 :( (PS the conection doesnt even get used that often cos im at uni and my sister doesnt download. ) Zen's offerings aren't unlimited off-peak, the 20GB & 50GB limits apply to any downloads done at any time (uploads don't count towards your total). They also do not block any ports (apart from 135-139, which shouldn't be outside of your internal network anyway), or shape traffic to slow it down at certain times.

	I don't know any of them that throttle ports anymore. They throttle specific traffic eg bittorrent. Get a client that can encrypt it such as utorrent.

	I know what you mean! :lol: I just cant find anyone else offering 2mb for 17.99 that I want to go with!

	PS I need an ISP that doesnt throttle the P2P ports, thats the main thing i mean by unlimited.

	I was with Tiscali before and theres no way I would EVER go back with them even if they paid me. :lol:
Marc	posted on 28th May 06 at 21:52

	You tried bulldog? not sure if they are on the local loop unbundling exchanges though, pretty sure they are!
John	posted on 28th May 06 at 21:45
	Everywhere should do up to 8meg now with ADSLMax depending how near the exchange you are. Very little unlimited now and most 'unlimited' have a fair use policy.
