Pathetic download speed
Ive attatched an image containing a bandwidth graph on my storage server which has been trying to download some 80gb of files from my server in the USA, using 5 FTP connections. This server has a 10Mbps uplink and it is not saturated. I own the server.

Ive been trying to download this data for about 4 days now and the speed has just dropped very low. I can accept the drop in speeds in peak hours, thats normal. But last night it dropped to 0.7Mbps and has stuck there since.

The graph provided is from SNMP data saved by PRTG and displayed on the graph. Ive made it large for more accuracy.

Has anybody got any idea what is going on? The speeds shouldn't be this bad. Its normally excellent in my area, usually flawless.

Im in the TS6 0 area of Middlesbrough.

Thanks in advance.
