Well I had all weekend to test and it feels like a completely different connection. I've not had a single slow down even at peak times.

Not that the previous one was bad just that it would show max speed sometimes but not all the time and sometimes VOIP calls wouldn't come in with the correct tagging etc.

But it's now exactly as RobertoS described and Kelly and Dave tell us it should be.

Yes... on Thursday late afternoon Plusnet recreated my entire Plusnet account and removed the Pro addon at the same time. It's running as if I was a new unlimited user.

Timl: Want to do another test? Try and max out your line with some P2P and then do some streaming or VoIP/Gaming and see check that the P2P slows appropriately and the other traffic is unaffected.

Your original problem has got me all paranoid and it would be great to see that all is fine.

FYI, we've checked and found some. Not massive numbers, but we are cleaning them up and we know what caused them to be missed too.

Hi Kelly,

I've not done a massive amount of downloading but over the last few days I noticed that when we streamed bbc iplayer and netflix at the same time as the P2P/Usenet download the P2P/Usenet download slowed and then went back up when the streaming stopped.

Thanks

An excellent example of why 99.9% of users don't want the Pro add-on. smile
