Just Got Put On 'smallband' By My Isp Again

[Mavol]

just amazing

i started sharing again when it dropped under 95% ul, but i noticed the people downloading from me were aborting and quickly resuming. This causes my ul-speed to change from 7kb/s to 19.... and im gonna be put on smallband again.

Since you're on such HORRIBLE monthly bandwidth limits, it makes very good sense for you to force KL++'s max upload bandwidth to be only a fraction of your connection's max upload speed.

Since you said you have only 128 kbps upload bandwidth, try setting it to only 64 kilobits or even 32 kilobits in KL++ and max uploads slots at once to no more than 4 (probably do best with only 1 or 2 upload slots.)

This should cause uploads to reach your monthly limit much slower PLUS have fewer resends of 'lost' data.

I just really tried to put thought on a way to get around it but I can't that is just messed up I think all peeps with limits should try there best to get another ISP.

thx for the responses

i actually once read somethin here but i have no idea if it works and how to do it: uncapping your modem. I once read here that the limit is kept in your modems firmware and that this can be altered but your isp could always check if your doing are it....
i'd probably mess up

i checked for xDSL providers but: same limits 10GB/m

Never ever come and live in belgium!

im on smallband till 5/12

Get Netlimiter this will help you to keep an eye on everything your uploads speeds/downloads speeds plus the amounts (megs) used on a daily/ weekly/ monthly should help you to not go over your limits.
