many reason and I don think everyone is capped with 50KB/s cause my friend in sunway always get 150KB/s with his line.
I have one house at serembang always get 180KB/s from USA ( my vps )
I have friends in Melaka Always get 120Kb/s from USA ( my server ) and some other fileshare website.
Thing is we can't predict it.
what i heard is there's possibility that at that time the "system" forgot the name where they used to control the speed. maxed out cause lot of users and that's why the capping comes in.
Meh once again I don know what's the problem there's lots of possibility.
Just trying to clearify some doubt here and there.
this is not an attack on you but i think your explanation creates more confusion than to clarify. i think all of us here are pretty clear about the limitations of TM's network and how unpredictable it is, having suffered through enough sh_it with the service over the years. but it's obvious here that bandwidth for some inexplicable reasons is being capped. i'm still on the same IP range as my previous post an hour ago, and look at my speedtest now. speed is suddenly restored to (almost) full capacity. if this is not evidence of capping then i don't know what is.
i get that TM is trying to maintain their QOS, but this is a blatant ripoff of the consumers, who expect the speed to at least approach the advertised speed. if my usual speed is 150kbps and now it's 100kbps i can get behind the QOS explanation, but below 50kbps?! might as well subscribe to the cheaper package innit?
since you have connection with some TM people, please please please tell them about this and ask them to explain. because the only logical explanation that we non-TM folks have is that our bandwidth is being capped.
