I'm not sharing copyrighted materials, I'm sharing my own materials. That's why it sucks. I pay for a service and expect to receive that service as advertized. Cox is messing with that service without warning or even admitting to it.

afx114: It looks as if the connection just times out. Does it matter what isp the downloading user uses? Or does it always just time out no matter the users ISP?

Very early on in testing I had two successfull uploads to other Cox customers, but it's been months since even that has happened. As I stated in my original post, it was probably a few transfers slipping through their filters. Cox has since tightened them down.

Cox's blocking of P2P uploads has undoubtedly hosed the upload speed of my connection. Sheesh.

Re: Cox dropping (not blocking) Gnutella traffic

That low up is not because of any P2P blocking. It is either a bum test or you have other issues.
