Does Vodafone Connect Broadband throttle/manage P2P traffic?

[link to this post]

Hi,

Does anybody know if Vodafone Connect Broadband throttles/manages P2P BitTorrent and/or Newsgroup traffic?

Many thanks.

I was speaking to one of their staff over the phone about this, apparently they don't. They know if their product was different to the rest of the market there would be no point offering it. Vodafone is spending a shed load on the rollout. If you look at the incumbents like Sky, TalkTalk and BT, they all offer "totally unlimited" broadband....I haven't included Virgin as well they don't offer said feature.

They do on their higher product. I regularly download digital games on Xbox Live, and if I download one 50gb game in an evening, my speed drops from 155 to 100, which is the old throttling. Last happened whne downloading Forza Motorsport 6 yesterday] in fact.

Not noticed any throttling and their traffic management document states there isn't any.
