I think the only thing TmNet is better at compare to other ISP around the world is how they cover up all their sinister activity

HK line, the other side slow... the lamest one was we are not throttling, just bandwidth shaping

when tmnut finish throttling?

this is totally unfair.. by paying rm88 for 1mbps is dy an unfair fee... and now they r throttling p2p.. without using p2p, when will we need 1mbps speed ??? normal 384 will be more than enough

now i don no doing what, just keep at here see got any news with unthrottling or still throttling.

please vote your opinion here..

I need more vote. Thanks.

Hey all, Im the news editor for Zeropaid.com, a P2P, file-sharing website and am doing an article on this development with TM Net.

Exetel, an Australian ISP, did this previously, cutting P2P speeds in halb from Noon to Midnight, for the same reason supposedly but looks as though will be permanent.

Any comments I an use for my article would be appreciated, like how different your speeds are now and anything you may know as to what's going on . THX

here it's like 24/7 capping.. speed like 5k-10k without local peers.. like going back to those dial up days..

Whats you'r normal connection speed? One guy makes it seem that he's got maybe 10% of what he once had, from 100kbs to now like 10kbs, is this really true?

tmnet dont even have to balls to announce anything officially regarding this issue.

yes it's true.. actually everyone is getting that speed now(those that are effected by the capping) i.e. 10k doesn't matter what package u subscribed.. and now after the capping my msn and yahoo messenger kept on disconnecting itself every 5 minutes or so.. and surfing is a pain as well.. everytime i've to refresh a few times before i could get anything from all the website i go to..

Yes, that true...
previous time have the speed around 100kb,
now only get not more than 12kb on the BT,
but other like FTP and HTTP are no problem

Before last month.

Normal BT speeds for RM88 1024kbps DL package = 100+kb/s
Normal BT speeds for RM66 512kbps DL package = Around 50 +/-10 kb/s

Since suspected throttling (i use the term suspected because TMNet HAS NOT, i repeat HAS NOT release any form of official announcement in regards to this matter)

Both pckages (torrents without local IP) = Around more or less 5 to 20kb/s. (sometimes ZERO >_<)

Torrents with Local IP can reach up to 50% or more of our max speed, depending on the upload speed given by the local peers (and also the number of connected local peers). Since we're capped on 512kbps Upload, the max we can upload is around 40kb/s, +/- 5kb/s.

nah they wont...
all the things that they will see is only animes and dvdrips movie...
junks ? ill get them from my frend cause he has not been throttled yet dunno why...
rm 66 can download at 110kb -.-

got latest news from tm...all they said was same all crap that they do not throttle but control....then if they do control wat does throttle mean ? to me its the same...
lols about the streamyx man call...
really hate them i was half way downloading 1 anime about 20gb at 60~70kb..
suddenly the next day waited 1 hour max 15kb only... WTH....
so showed them.... wat happened to my bt...

ps: if they do find weird junks on my pc its not their right to sue me as it is a personal rights item and i dint do anything againts the law about the items so no worries.... if they said i download it...no problem they can check their logs if they can find the downloaded stuff they found ...



local peer stuff arent exactly wat we need... i mean like u want to download a but they supply more for b than a =.=!!

Just finished up a story on this throttling by TM Net, we in the P2P community have to stick togther. Exetel already started throttling its Australian customers, before you know it all the ISPs may follow suit.

Anyways, read the story and be sure to Digg It!! if you dig it.

Yah thats a weird one, its called "Mrs. Giggles" but she makes the same point about her connection speeds being drastically reduced as well.

This post has been edited by soulxtc: Oct 23 2006, 01:45 AM

dunno wat happened recently
cant really say fully throttled
sometimes less than 10kb, den sometimes suddently shoot up to max speed

me too... sometimes feel like a dumbass waiting for 16hours++ to finish 250MB of files to be finished...

I am basically undergoing the same thing as Mrs Giggles - poor internet and international connectivity overall. Putting p2p issues aside, just about the only thing I can do is browse (barely) and irc. Although my speedtest shows that I still have some basic speed, it is only to those specific speedtest servers (makes me sometimes think they allow full speed to those servers so we can't say anything is wrong with our connection, heh). Everything else is crippled. So 1) legitimate transfers = crippled, 2) browsing = crippled, 3) audio streaming = crippled, 4) video streaming = definitely crippled
How is one supposed to update antivirus or OS patches when everything is crippled? HEH
Gaming? Well I can completely forget about even considering that since...BINGO..CRIPPLED!
In the end what can be ascertained from the service of TMNet is that it's all about the money and less about everyone's service, because as one of their customers I sure haven't been satisfied. It could be that they only cater to a specific percentage of customers to satisfy them and forget about the rest. Maybe they are working hard to fix things, who knows, but what I can say of the last few years is I haven't really seen any substantial results. I prefer to hear less reasonings of the why's and what's regarding the problem at hand (because we've all seen their replies and it is all the same). I just want to see results like everyone else. I sincerely hope that they do rectify this insanely depriving crap that they bestowed upon us a.s.a.p. It truly is sad.

10kbs? Wow those people are lucky. I'll be lucky if mine even reaches 2kbs
