Re: How much Bell's throttling affects our network and others
With this information and the information from this post
»From the ennemy's mouth: P2P no longer largest bandwidth use
Bell should be throttling people surfing the web and watching YouTube since they seem to be the real culprits.  |

Would it be possible to provide a graph from February? March break, and reading week happens over several weeks in March, depending on the school boards. February may prove to be a more relevant bench-mark. jmho.  |

said by TSI Gabe  :Please judge for yourselves... Thats a pretty neat graph. I'm curious how you can differentiate between encrypted p2p and other protocols. If its using a l7 type filter thats only going to show p2p un-encrypted traffic.
Most people use encrypted p2p now i think. So I really think that graph might be slightly inaccurate. I might be wrong though as I don't know very much about IP |

Plus, this limits incoming connection and download speeds since not everybody sharing the file have encrypted enabled/forced. Thus you're still artificially throttling yourself in a way |

I know this may sound naive, but is this even legal?
I plan to call them later to disconnect my phone. My mom has had it for 7 years now, but it's time to move on. I'll let them know why I'm deciding to cancel the service, too. |

All i was saying is that graph shows p2p specifically but thats only going to be un-encrypted p2p traffic. I bet the majority of p2p is encrypted so its not shown on that graph. |

The graphs don't make any sense to me.
I don't understand the 1gbps difference claim as the 1st graph only indicates an 0.4gbps change at 06:15.
The 2nd and 3rd graphs don't seem to relect the same time period as the 1st? They don't indicate the large spike at 06:15. The protocol recognition makes no sense, either. There's no way P2P is using that little in comparisson to UDP (?) and web traffic, it should surely be MUCH larger given its popularity and general size of transfers that take place (I've seen graphs from other ISPs that look far different to that distribution). I suspect P2P traffic is actually represented across all indicated protocols there, including UDP (which is nonsense, surely?). It also makes no sense at all that the 3rd graph shows a 110mbps drop across ALL protocols, and at ALL times of the day? They also appear to indicate peak activity in the wee morning hours and minimum in the evening. I gather the times indicated are 12 hours out of step?
All in all these graphs just don't make any sense. |

Since April 7th, my internet hasn't worked right, at all. I've been through hell trying everything TekSavvy has wanted me to, but it's not on my end, never has been. It's directly a result of Bell's changes.
I cannot browse the web or play games without problems happening. My signal is strong and clean, but it keeps having multiple login's (router has been out of the equation, so not that), and constant problems.
This has caused me a lot of aggravation and headache, phone bill costs, and now I'm having Crohn's attacks, causing me a lot of physical pain. This could lead to me missing work and having to go to the hospital.
All of this caused by Bell's traffic shaping of people who are not Bell customers. Good job Bell, you are destroying my life and costing me a lot of money. |
