The unlimited from tomorrow 80/20 should see max line rate all day as the traffic management will be removed.

Max!!!

Don't be so stupid. You know you are talking utter drivel there.

As roberto said. The new unlimited fibre has nothing to do with PN extra fibre. Anway I would rather have caps and know where I stand. I don't think it will be as unlimited as it says.

If you move max, you can run some P2P tests on the unlimited fibre then.

On the contrary, I think it *will* be as unlimited as they say.

They've been burned before, so I'm pretty sure that they've *really* been through the homework on it.

The highest I managed to get while I was on the 40meg download, was at 3.8 MB/s. That is even higher than what I have managed to achieve on 80/20 at about, 3.5 MB/s last night. While not bad I do feel it is a little low. What do you think? Should I not be getting higher, say 5 or 6MB/s?

As we discovered on the other thread, you are sync'ed at about 46Mbps, and can expect a maximum of 44Mbps (or 5.3MBps).

That's the maximum, including any overheads of the P2P protocols, including any information discovering & communicating with the torrent server and the peers. Likewise I don't know whether your screenshots include that overhead or not.

Overall, I don't think you're doing too badly. Obviously it will go a little higher, but not a lot.

Upload speed most of the time is quite poor. Don't think I�m the only one but if you upload after 12am, should be better. I was surprised to see about 1.1 MB/s upload. That was two simultaneous uploads together. Doubt very much you will see uploads of that speed during the day. See upload screen grabs only.

On the other thread, you were getting upload speeds of 8Mbps. That is very comparable to the 1.1MBps, so again not bad.

The only bit to work out is whether an 8Mbps speed is the best that can be achieved upstream.

What thread was that? I have never had 1.1 MB/s upload before, other than once with PN.

As you can see from screan grab. not 1.1MB/s

In the text I quoted, about 2 lines above my statement you said "Upload speed most of the time is quite poor. Don't think I�m the only one but if you upload after 12am, should be better. I was surprised to see about 1.1 MB/s upload." So you said *here in this thread* that you had 1.1MB/s upload.

I took that *very* specifically: "M" means mega, and "B" means bytes (not bits).

Over on this thread (where we're discussing your ordinary connection speed), you show an upload speedtest result of "Upload Speed
8.32 Mbps "

I took that very specifically too: "M" means mega, and "b" means bits (not bytes).

1.1 MBps is almost identical to 8.3 Mbps.

So... you got P2P upload speeds of 1.1MB/s, and I tried to show that it is consistent with the plain-old-boring-not-P2P upload speeds you are getting.

Ok your post confused the hell out of me. I thought you was on about my old isp.

I think I get you now. So I am not going to get more than about 1.1 MB/s then.

It doesn't look like it.

To get more, you'd need to see a higher value in the upload speed of a speedtest. And to see if that is even possible, we need to know your upstream sync speed. That's possible, if you hack your modem, but...

his stats are now in his other thread, he hasnt got full upload sync.
