Re: [Extreme] BT Throttling on Utorrent 1.6 has resumed recently My exact same situation yet people refused to believe it months ago.
I had Rogers and Bell at the same time for a couple of days and had two identical PCs on each. Bell could download 400-500KB/s, while the Rogers crawled at 30KB.
If you use BT, Rogers isn't for you. I'd recommend using another ISP. |

kudos:4 | This is nothing at all new ... how many months have we been saying this? Sheesh. |

| Actually, this is rather new, ever since the switch over to the new netblock. While Rogers has been throttling all along, this is the first that the old work-around has failed. I used to have download speeds up to 700KB/s, now I'm very, very lucky if I get near 200. Upload speeds rarely get above 10KB/s, and are much lower on most trackers.
Luckily for me, my bundling discount expired this week, so I've no incentive to stay around much longer. |

| Yes, same here, bye-bye Rogers. This is the first time for me being throttled in two years. |
