Desperate to terminate it after 4 month of usage on this 148 package, really cant tahan they throttle the torrent speed all day long now.. (before that the throttling was only start after 8pm, but since I make a complaint & show them my download speed on utorrent, they just fu*ked up my speed even worst, how stupid am I..), what use of 10mbps if cant download?? Really regret to subscribe, do u guys stastify with the service so far? Am I the only one sufferer? Reaally think about to pay the 500RM penalty fee instead of remaning contract monthly fees..

I think the only way to overcome torrent throttling is to subscribe to VPN services. hmm.gif

Can you guys bypass the throttling by using VPN services?

Why use VPN when you can subscribe to alldebrid or realdebrid services? EURO 4 which is RM 18 per month.

I'm talking about p2p traffic.
As far as I know, there is no throttling for direct downloads (with exception on limits imposed by file hosts).

For those of you who do not want throttled service, access to region-specific content (e.g. BBC iPlayer, Hulu, Netflix), and unblocked, uncensored Internet from Maxis (or indeed any other ISP), subscribe to a commercial VPN service. Prices are less than RM20/month (but shop around and do your due diligence; instead of local ISP knowing your surfing patterns, now the VPN provider knows). I've never had to worry about throttling and, well, my VPN even comes with a static IP (so I could set up servers if I wanted to).

@r1nk: I use my own router in conjunction with the stock router. The stock router ONLY handles IPTV for Astro; everything else is DMZ to my ASUS. TPLink is great for normal - even heavy - Internet activity; it suxxor for P2P - at least, that is my experience. This dual router setup does consume a bit more energy, but everything works perfectly about 99% of the time. If you do not have either VOIP or IPTV (just naked Internet), then you can chuck the stock router out the window.

Hi, which VPN service do you use?
