Have the 20mbps packing and average download speeds are about 200-300 kilobytes. Reset the router several times ans still the same. I fed up waste money calling and waiting. Steups.
u sure the source u are downloading from not restricting u to 200 - 300kbps?

stev, scotty is right I live in the same area and experience the same symptoms no matter the configuration or router I use. I have a 50mb connection and I'm lucky if I see a 20mb connection at most however during off peak hours 2a.m. - 6a.m. the speeds jump. On Thursday my average speed was 1-2 mbps overall,even on a proxy connection. Downloads themselves seem to peak to 500-800kbps.
In addition to speculation of throttling by Flow I have been monitoring it and from my observations they are definitely throttling not only torrents but video services or households on a whole,if not their service has just become total sheit. I've downgraded my package and I think I'll be doing it again as I am not getting what I paid for.

I downgraded from that 50mbps package since they raised their packages from 5 to 10 and 15 to 20 etc. Since that 'upgrade' flow playing up in dey mc

I had a 100mb package because in my household we use alot of bandwidth, and over time I was not getting anywhere to those speeds and now same is to be said for the 50mb. I thinking of reducing again and even pelting back with their HD boxes, what a waste.

well i guess its the area then...i have no problem whatsoever otherwise with my 30Mbps connection. (Waterloo area)
i get 3.5 - 3.7MBps transfer rate using any download manager.
2.6 - 3.2MBps using uTorrent (random port each time I use as well as forced encryption)
never really noticed any change during peak / off peak hours.....will monitor for a few days and report back.

flow was good back in the day but now they are worse than blink ever was.
