Correct me if I'm wrong here but sites like youtube etc don't use download managers but single http stream yes? I've been comparing my flow 10mb vs tstt blink 4mb and on sites like hp thinkbroadband, with flow I can't get more than 1-2mb(as of late achieving 2mb difficult, being generous by saying 1-2mb) single http speeds.However same sites tested with Blink 4mb I achieve 4mb speed. (No download managers used) Incase you were wondering,this issue with speed is ongoing 24/7(Not peak hrs issue). My latency for online gaming at night (peak hrs) gets worse however.To give you an idea on latency issue, World of Warcraft Flow:400ms(best) 1000ms(worse) Ventrillo Flow:250-300. Tstt figures are WOW: 250ms avg Ventrilo :90-110

A Flow rep confirmed they are capping to ensure some sorta service... At the moment my flow 10mb connection running like 512k..

May be some localized problem. Works fine (normal) here:

Are you serious,man?

I'm laughing myself into a stupor here.

I have been seeing this lately. My TSTT 4mbit connection performs much better than my Flow 10mbit! E.g. HD video on vimeo.com streams almost instantly on TSTT but takes forever to buffer using flow.

When did Flow launch their telephone service?

It seems that their problems just mushroomed when they did that...

good day,
I seem to be having this same issue. every night from about 9pm till around 11pm, i have latency issues. speed tests show me running at 0.3kbps, and i have the 2MB package. Outside of those hours, everything seems to be fine. Any other users from Maraval experiencing this?
