I use torrents a few times a month, usually for minutes at a time. Maybe you use it many long hours?

Maybe it's just you? Im getting full speed from both torrents AND nntp traffic in practice - but not from the test site you listed...

they are defiantly throttling NTTP to 20 k Torrents avg 1.0 /sec the new servers should be 300 to 1.5 per sec on NTTP So much for unlimited internet considering NTTP servers account for 1/3rd of the entire internet.

I downloaded some torrents using Azureus last night, and got a 1.6mbps download speed for most of one, and about 800kbps on the other. Maybe Charter's not doing it through their entire system?

I can download an hour-long video in about 6 minutes. I'm not complaining!

The FCC's previous ruling was supposed to make such actions illegal. I guess Charter failed to get the memo.

ya I have misgivings about any pay service. In the past once a pay service is sized they almost always turn over there financial records with out delay or warring to the subscribers. Most claim some form of OFF SHORE bla bla

...yep. I've moved over to NNTP on non-standard ssl ports - so far, good luck with it for the last 6 months.

So I ran the Glasnost test, looks like charter is limiting bandwith to torrent ports to 1 m/sec

Any one using another ISP care to share your results?
