Sandman77 Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Last year when I got my tot DSL line installed the Usenet download speed was real good often nearly 10 Mbit But this year it mostly have 2 up to 3 Mbit only in the morning hours between 8 and 11 am speed is aproxinently at 8 Mbit , often when the downloads runs 24h , it's interrupted and I have to resume! In my home country this never happens! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robblok Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 @sandman77 Stay home (seriously you always compare it with your home country one would think you would learn) My usenet download speed is quite good i get the 30mbit. The only time its less its after 17:00-24:00 after I have downloaded 2-3 gb so I do most of my downloads during the day. I am on 3bb fiber optics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before that time i download with 4mb/sec and after that i download with 770Kb sec. So that is roughly 1/6 of what i would be doing normally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morakot Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 (edited) Thanks for confirming what I've suspected is going on here on my side too. I watch TV via broadband and it always buffers in the evenings, except after I having been away for some longer time.

I can always download on an other time (that is what I do) but it gets boring for watching TV. But I can 100% confirm this its quite telling because I always got full speed except around those times after a certain amount of data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No channel hopping! If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for the installation for your 3BB fibre optics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still also paying the cheaper promotion price. Soon that will change. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GinBoy2 Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Usenet also is a variable beast, a legacy from the early days of the Internet. A lot depends on the news server you use and it's connections to the usenet files you want to download. We are all painfully aware of the international connection limitations which I think are just exacerbating some of the inherent usenet perfromance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandman77 Posted February 11, 2015 Author Share Posted February 11, 2015 How this limitation exactly loock like? Directly in the backbone server? I heard one time true cable internet not have this limitation Not every download have same speed but at home I always at full line speed stable , but in Siam land everything same same but diffrent!

GinBoy2 Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 All Thai ISP' have international bandwidth limitations, ie capacity including True, you only need to read this forum for a few weeks to understand that!. Then add to that some of their more bizarre routings and speed degradation is a fact of life. Your usenet is not going to be immune from that.

IMHO Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 (edited) OK, first off - what usenet service are you using, and what country(ies) is it served from? Usenet has been dying a slow death for years now, and especially over the past 3 years since DMCA hit the scene with a sledgehammer and customer levels plummeted...

Bardeh Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I've also noticed my Usenet speeds are pretty damn crappy at the moment. Especially in the evenings, I'm only getting 10-20% of what I can expect my connection to do. Torrents don't even seem to be working at all. I recently switched from ToT to True and I never found it to happen with ToT - is it possible that True throttles my connection if they consider me to be downloading too much? If so, is there any way to find out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually.. all I am seeing is more and more usenet. I have clients selling usenet and their turnover is going up and up. Free usenet might be dying.. but usenet that you pay for with a long retention time certainly is not. I prefer it over torrents.. much faster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandman77 Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 At the time someone download a file from your torrent and you upload it in my measurements , the download speed goes down mostly 30 Procent I pay 10€ in one month for 100 gb usnet and unlimited with 2 Mbit down speed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
