    I'm stealing this from a mate via a private forum. Good stuff and thought I would share it!

    Not sure if this link has done the rounds but its certainly the first time I have seen it.

    http://broadband.mpi-sws.org/transparency/

    Checks whether they block your torrent connections with Sandvine etc.

    My test came back clean unlike the one at my probation office a few years ago...

    Anal is the only form of birth control shown to be 100% effective. Even abstinence failed once.

    Nice thread bumrocks. I always wondered this, and now I know that I'm not being throttled.

    Network Timeout:

    The server at glasnost.karrenberg.net is taking too long to respond.

    I guess the server is busy right now. Will try it later on...

    Thanks...

    Yeah I want to try this. I don't think I'm being throttled, but who knows. Thanks for the link.

    Aww I'm getting the same thing. I already know that i'm throttled big time. But hey, I currently am running a 3rd party firmware to bypass throttling via MLPPP, just wanted to see if the site would detect it as NOT being throttled.
