Re: BT throttling total bandwidth & not specific apps

quote:
BT has said its speed limit is explained on its website, on a page describing its Total Broadband Fair Usage policy.

The clause in question says: "We do limit the speed of all video streaming to 896Kbps on our Option 1 product, during peak times only."
You must have missed this quote where they state that they ARE capping iPlayer and all other video streams.

No, they are not capping at 700kbps... they are capping at 896kbbps.
