First time trying out the member's new thingy, bear with me =P Glasnost is a tool created by researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Software Systems to map ISPs who throttle BitTorrent traffic. Other than the "notorious" Comc*** Singapore's Sta***b was also mentioned. Why am I not surprised D=

Starhub is just typical of the corporate lying weasel. You can call them up to complain, and they'll tell you they don't throttle BT traffic. Then they'll shift the blame to other ISP.

how fast is your torrent speed using starhub? I;m using 2mbps and 250KB/s is my peak with 100KB/s avrage, where are the rest of the bandwidth? ^^;; I know a torrent speed is subject to the torrent's file health so this isn't a properr way to measure torrent speed on an ISP

To get an acurate speed of a conection you should find some official linux distro torrent, they always have hundreds of seeders and in a few minutes you'll reach the max of your conection. But one thing that still happens today is that some blocking happens in certain hours of the day, like from 1 to 6 AM, so you'd need some way to check it to see if it's not half-a-day blocked there ^^'

I think I have the same plan but my speed seldom top 100kb/s downstream. Estimated average is about 40+kb/s, the upload speed even worse, averaging only around 20kb/s making me hard to be a useful seed =/

Dam us for wanting to use the bandwidth they say we payed for.

Looks like a part of north texas is hit slightly, yet can't tell where exactly. Is that D/FW?

...My BT at home has been topping 130kb/s lately. When I download at my University it hits what used to be my regular, around 400 kb/s or so. My average nowadays is around 40 kb/s. It's a very sad, sad existence. ><

Actually I changed ISP for that very reason, previous ISP (FREE a.k.a PROXAD) used to block BT completely during daytime and only allow some traffic during night time for 'unbundled' dsl lines like mine (even encryption didn't work)... They said it was just because of the new firmware in their CISCO routers (which was true !) So I changed back to Orange and BT speed got back to full speed (1 MB/s , can't get more since i'm living 'in the sticks')
