Need prove that Airtel may be throttling/shaping my bandwidth

[Sushubh]

i am getting full speeds right now. i have not been using torrents without VPN running so i have not noticed any throttling in the recent months. anyone else here?

They're still throttling. Wanted to see if torrents could max out my line & I checked on both Saturday & Sunday. No luck. Limited to 512kbps.

Other than torrents (during 10am-10pm), airtel doesn't throttle anything . even for torrents , you can use easy tricks to get full speed without paying for a seedbox . if you download from private trackers then seedbox might be a good investment as because of the FUP limits and low upload speeds it is hard to seed a torrent .

If they were throttling torrents, I would have been using 1-2 mbps plans

Hey get me your telephone number with std code ..
I will let airtel know about it that you are not been throttled. Or i will try tweeting them :smile:

lol. add me to the list coz i was getting full speeds at around 8:30pm!

Possible. But then I tried again after 11 pm on Saturday. No change. Anyway, I only use torrents once in a blue moon, so it doesn't affect me much.

How is that?

I think ISPs tend to do these things randomly, so our experiences differ. Figuring out how to get reasonably decent speeds on your torrents from a public tracker is not as easy. Figuring out whether your ISP throttles torrents is even more difficult.

Has airtel stopped torrent throttling?I am getting full speeds on torrents in daytime too .. Anyone experiencing the same?
