... now i am with chorus and everything was fine till 3 weeks ago... i found out the chorus made a fusion with some other provider last month and since then the shaping problem appears... however, they told me that they hope to have it sorted by Friday this week... will see....
... unfortunately, there are still stupid people that download an very high amount of crap over p2p networks, so the isp's have to shape there traffic or they pay a lot of money to the server centers on the main land... the pity is, that this affects online games as well.... | Dude I work in Irish Broadband, believe me, we don't traffic shape.  |
