Typical ISP usage is much lower on weekends anyways - as much as 30% based on the various ISP data I see.
Not having ever seen usage data justifying current throttling practice - I must take your word for it. FWIW, my ISP never had a problem with it.
Trust me - I"m not justifying throttling :) I'm just stating that typical ISP usage is lower on weekends, that's all. Every ISP's model is a bit different - the ISP's total usage from several providers that I look at is all ISP's who sell a lot of business services .... so if the ISP doesn't sell much in that line (as 3web would fall into) then their usage would be quite different.

Hmm that's strange. When I was using 3Web cable, the slowest/most congested times were Saturday and Sunday evenings. Maybe people in my neighbourhood are out of the norm.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Throttling-on-weekends-23312684 Mon, 09 Nov 2009 00:07:49 EDT Re: Throttling on weekends? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Throttling-on-weekends-23312481 said by pstewart:

Apparently, residential users don't use the internet on weekends until 16:30.
Typical ISP usage is much lower on weekends anyways - as much as 30% based on the various ISP data I see. Weekday usage is much higher - our busiest times are Tuesday evenings for example. I believe this is due to the business activity that occurs during the week vs weekend - at least that's the reason I can come up with.
