[re: deleted] [link to this post]
 
TalkTalk ffic manage on there basic package ONLY anyone who says diffrent dosnt deserve BB or a computer. and even then there pretty half assed whith it iv been with TT for 5 years now and only had one problem when the phone line outside snapped on a windy day took the best part of 24 hours for them to get it fixed which isnt to bad at all as for speed if your intrested use the talktalkmembers.com website and they will proberbly get you above the predicted speeds they got me a full extra meg

i dont know much about plusnet other than there from yorkshire XD
the big killer i have against plus net is its owned by BT who cant seem to get much right from the looks of there fibre roll out

other than that there both great companys just like SKY and BE

(ps i dont use full stops because its way over the other side of the keyboard and i cant be bother)

So where TalkTalk say on this page about their traffic management that they slow down P2P on TalkTalk Plus, it is wrong?

Perhaps you don't use P2P much?

Also check the Broadband Map link on this site by putting in your postcode.
This may give you local oddities.

Are you saying that to support the argument there is traffic shaping or that there isn't?

160Kb/s is hardly quick unless that is as fast as your line goes so I am assuming you are saying that they are traffic shaping?

Which is fine until you add Be.

I suggest the Sky one is dragged down a fair bit by the bad reports they will be getting for Sky Connect.

Plusnet does seem to be the best compromise in this instance.

My line at the time supported roughly

1500KB/s

so yes i would say it was traffic managed but

nothing else(streaming,direct FTP ect) was from what i can remember.
