it is not. the speed is much worst, around 20-30++kbps. using maxis bb much much more faster bro. hey if if i've been miscapped whats the easiest way to bring back the actual speed? can't stand seeing it at 2mbps. wtf
QUOTE(automan5891 @ Nov 28 2009, 09:00 AM)
It is not a miscap. It's a throttle/slowdown of youtube. You see TM Net is selling you 1mbps, 2mbps & 4 mbps but when you stream flv like youtube the maximum speed is 20-30kBps except after 1am till 11am.

yeah my line too, youtube slow streaming at night
its capped at 5.5Mbit and i can sustain 512kbps on average
Quoting Fair Usage Policy (FUP)
QUOTE
The Fair Usage Policy automatically identifies the extremely heavy users and manages their bandwidth in order to protect the service of all our other customers. This traffic prioritization policy will protect the quality of service for the majority of our customers when they use the service, while at the same time, still allowing the extremely heavy users to continue to send and receive files with certain restrictions. With this policy in place, we will prioritize Internet activities like web browsing, live streaming, messaging applications and VOIP access while traffic to P2P sites will be given lower priority, due to the high bandwidth consumption of such services.
QUOTE
For example, some customers use P2P or file sharing software, which constantly sends and receives videos and other types of very large files, throughout the day. These activities (download and upload continuously) use a lot of bandwidth and can significantly reduce the connection speed, which other customers are getting to access the Internet during peak hours. We don’t believe this is fair to the vast majority of our customers.
1. As far as my knowledge of internet concerns, Youtube can be considered a live streaming site and should be given priority as stated in the FUP.
2. I'm not an extreme heavy user and they should at no time prioritize my traffic usage.
3. As far as the FUP is concern, it will only limit P2P and P2P sites that consume a lot bandwidth and/or users who use extremely lot of bandwidth.
4. Youtube is not a p2p system or site.
5. Youtube is not a file sharing software.
6. TM broke their own Fair Usage Policy by limiting our Youtube speed.
7. Their FUP got loophole because it states Extreme heavy usage? How much is extreme? for normal user like me, extreme means >20GB a month. But to all torrent and RS kaki, your extreme is 100GB+- a month.
(That is on the assumption they throttle Youtube)
There might be other possibilities like they are starting their own cache server and need some time to set it up and get all the videos in it. Other possibilities are server problem etc.
However, a user in the forum has told us that Premium Customer Service told him that they are throttling Youtube and Rapidshare.
I am now quite busy, so i suggest you guys to complain to relevant complain bodies 1st. Giving a pre-amp situation and a platform for our pledge to begin.
I should be free after 2nd week of December and if by then it doesn't improve, i will exhaust all time and resource to take this case up to the highest level possible as i always do with fellow LYN members...
Please, you have to take make a report and take this case up with higher authorities. But i STRONGLY suggest you contact TM though e-mail 1st and see what reasons they give and whether they do throttle Youtube. If they are denying and being unreasonable, giving excuses, then take it up to relevant complain bodies.
* Remember, this in on the assumption that they do throttle Youtube. The signs are there, anyway do make a case and see what they have to say.
