Re: bit torrent and fios

said by blue_trooper See Profile :

This isn't Verizon regulating things but could be an issue if you are seeding a large number of popular torrents.
The popular conspiracy theory is that Verizon purposely crippled the firmware on the Actiontec to limit P2P on their network and/or that they're slow to issue a fix for it because of the aforementioned reason. I don't buy into that theory at all.

only on dsl would have a limit
Even on DSL, I don't think they implement traffic shaping. I have a friend that lives across town that still has DSL - routinely downloads from BT, Usenet and Winny without any problems at high speeds.
