Is the Internet slow ? Or Am i the only one?

storm
By storm

I hope yet another ship did not send down thier anchor right on top of the undersea Internet cables.. My net speed is not above 290 kbps and i pay for like 1 MB of speed. Or maybe a blue whale got stuck down there.
Please guys let me know Am i the only one or is there anyone else like me. Thanks

qtel are traffic shaping

which means that torrent, youtube and a bunch of other high-bandwidth sites are being choked

makes you wonder why they offer broadband. if the only purpose of the internet was reading email, we could cope with 56k dialup, but surely broadband is mean to be about watching video???
