Re: Single thread/stream download problems

Here's one from my 200/12 with 12 down 2 up channels on RiverDelta CMTS



It sure seems to be a worsening problem and TBB's monthly data this month is showing a 46% decrease in average peak time single thread speeds in November which is significantly worse than October and September, I believe the data during June/July only showed a 26.5% decrease in the evenings.

Re: Single thread/stream download problems

VM have finally posted officially on their forum's thread addressing this issue. It doesn't explain how or why, but does at least admit it's a problem and says it'll be resolved with upcoming network upgrades. So... 2025 then.

Well it's not a hardware issue which then indicates it's some of broken traffic management or management they didn't expect someone to notice.
Remember originally before more people complained the answer was "this is by design" which makes sense if this applied to areas which are busy.
I'm in Sheffield which always has capacity issues so it makes sense to limit traffic to prevent congestion.
However if it is deliberate traffic policy they are then misleading customers again as the only way to use your full bandwidth is use software which opens multiple connections to the source.

LOL Finally got a response from virgin on their forums.
They won't have it that it also effects other kit.
So despite them checking my hub and seeing zero problems I've got to start a duplicate thread and put my tests results in there.

Re: Single thread/stream download problems

Those of you who still haven't been switched to a new CMTS (like myself), are you still having slow single thread speeds?

Re: Single thread/stream download problems

I still have the single thread issue (old CMTS still), t's very annoying considering the price of the service but there's not really another option!
