I notice the same pattern too.. after midnight getting normal max speed of 220KBps (2mbps line) but during the day, esp 8am til midnight, the speed appears to be capped or limited to 50 - 80KBps max.

This seems to be happening to International Downloads only.. tried something from local akamai mirror and getting 180KBps which is good..

Link congestion again, due to share between Screamyx and HSBB customers? Is the QoS settings going to priotize HSBB packets 1st on same link and let Screamyx users scream?

I wonder... :|

I think some places are still down / problematic but my area service seems to be restored and much, much faster than it has been for the past 1 or 2 months..

Maybe because other users are down = less overuse of screamyx's oversold bandwidth = faster line for those who can get connected?

I know we've been discussing, complaining, ranting & cursing on this matter for so long now.. but is there any way we can PROVE that TMnut is overselling their bandwidth exceedingly / beyond normal fair practice causing ALL users to notice very slow speed when everybody is connected (during no outage period) and bring it to MCMC or some other authorities? Anybody in the know-how or has access to these information and would like to share / help? Or are we doomed to repeat our complains & rantings etc here forever.. while nothing productive happens
