Slow P2P/multipoint download

well yeah the connect package is the problem with peer to peer but enabling encryption sometimes fools then into giving ya faster speeds

ah ok cheers.

SO my question is this then? Is there anything in my connect contract that states that they will cap p2p traffic? Regardless of any other *shenanigans* - I actually have a need to receive/send fairly large torrent traffic for some work I am doing.

Has Sky said anything about this anywhere do you know? (sorry to be a pain but you're really helping me - so thanks!)

Ah... Got you, understood.

Thanks for that. It seems like a lot of people on connect are having problems here and it's good to get a solid set of answers - much appreciated!
