<description><![CDATA[ScytheNoire posted : 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.<br><br>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.<br><br>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.<br><br>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.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[anon posted : The graphs don't make any sense to me.<br><br>I don't understand the 1gbps difference claim as the 1st graph only indicates an 0.4gbps change at 06:15.<br><br>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?<br><br>All in all these graphs just don't make any sense.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Black Moon posted : Hang on a second, Gabe. Someone already said that the dip is between midnight and 6 AM. Usually traffic is low during that time.
