| Throtting = high latency On thing that upsets me about this throttling, as I saw when I used my Sympatico account, my other TCP/UDP connections suffer. The latency variant between each hop jumps between ~+20ms to 200 ms. It is not just BT suffering, other things like SFTP seems to be throttled back too. Luckily, I have access to a NEXXIA account at work to do some downloading during slow periods of the day. |
| Bell is throttling ALL encrypted connections which includes SFTP, VPN, RDP, IMAP. They utilize the same vendor as Rogers to do their shaping/throttling (I got this info from a VP of Product Management for Bell) Once they started this crap, I noticed major fluctuations in RDP. Using RDP at 30kbps is ridiculous. The further problem is there is not set time when they throttle - it's just whenever "Network Congestion" is detected aka high use periods. |
