Same here. Location JB

Before CNY, I can max out the bandwidth easily anytime
But now, download speed over FTP on my own server is about 100-250kBps
I suspect perhaps TIME is having some connection issues with Europe??

I wonder what's the cause behind this slowdown!!!
On my Maxis Fibre at home, I managed to max out the bandwidth downloading from the same server

Hope this can be fixed ASAP

I managed to max out the bandwidth on every test file

I think maybe France and Germany badly affected
From speedtest OVH France & Leaseweb Germany have very bad result

If possible, please try download one of the test files from here - http://proof.ovh.net/files/
Please share the results. Thanks

Thanks for your help bro
We have more or less the same speed
I think there are some problem with TIME at the moment........

Actually the router provided is full of problems. Just google and u will find many complaints
For my company, the router is nothing but trouble.. It will automatically disconnect from internet for about 1/2 minutes randomly (but router remain on, just no internet). It happened everyday for us....

Finally I changed the router to a spare TP Link and never face disconnect problem again

Haizzzz so sien.....
Before this I thought TIME is the best telco........
Now I've got so many movies stacking up in my server but downloading them into PC so slow........

I'm also having exactly the same problem as u, except the throttled speed is to my own server...

I suspect this is done on the RNC side which identified high bandwidth utilisation IP and throttled the connection speed, so regardless how many times restart router or changing to whatever IP the speed is still slow

Good job TIME

As I already pointed out, speedtest to KL/Singapore is normal
But just only when downloading, the speed is very slow, never more than 200kBps
After restart router many times changing to various IP range, speed is still slow

So the logical conclusion is TIME throttled the speed

I noticed today there are improvements in download speed. Although still cannot max out my Time fibre bandwidth, it is now steadily 500kbps-600kbps which is much better than the previous situation

Hopefully things will get even better soon
Let's keep out fingers crossed

After getting quite good speed in the morning, download speed again is slowed down to not more than 200kbps.....

Sien..........

Bro maybe u didn't get it. I already say from few posts back I download from my OWN dedicated server. No other user on those servers. 1 of them is a 1Gbit server. Download speed is SLOWWWW. Until now it is not more than 200kBps

So finally I got pissed and called TIME. The answer is simple. As I've suspected, it's a peering issue. Undersea cable SMW4 is having some fault. Repair is already underway, expected to be finished by next Monday 16/3/15. In the meantime, TIME is re-routing traffic from Europe to US, which have massive data lost and so result in slow speed

Let's hope this will be fixed ASAP..

Hmmm since u are telling the opposite of TIME customer service, perhaps can reveal what's the cause of this slowdown please

Before TIME solves this, it would be better to stay away from TIME. What's the point of having 100mbps or unmetered 30mbps when u can only download at not more than 200kbps no matter what package u on

Problem with slow download seems to be fixed. I'm currently happily maxing out the bandwidth of TIME fibre

Hope it stays this way

I think something wrong with the Boost usage slider. For my account, it always show 0%

I've got the details in these posts here:

According to TIME CS, the slow speed is caused by faulty SMW4 undersea cable. Although I managed to max out my office bandwidth this morning, currently as of now download speed is less than 200kBps again....

Bro which location in Europe are u experiencing slow speed actually?
I download a lot from my servers in France & Germany
From my observation, I get max 20Mbps downloading from either France or Germany after boost.. Decent speed but far from the 30Mbps TIME is advertising....

I'm not sure whether other users have been able to max out the advertised bandwidth after boost. Can u?

And to add on, after boost I'm not able to max out the advertised 30Mbps bandwidth even with speedtest or downloading from local Malaysian/Singapore servers

To show some examples:
BEFORE BOOST



AFTER BOOST


The speedtest server I useds are:
KL - Yes 4G
Singapore - Softlayer
Germany - Frankfurt Leaseweb

And just realised I'm able to get slightly better speedtest results from KL - Celcom Axiata
But still it's far from the advertised 30Mbps bandwidth after boost..........

What sort of download speed are u getting from that region?
I would imagine if downloading from a dedi u should be able to max out the bandwidth?
