Astraweb problems?

when i first joined astraweb 3 months back i was getting my full 440kb/s, now im down to 240!! looks like isp maybe throttling :(
 
I must admit my Astraweb speeds are mostly below 1mb a sec no matter what time of day. I was getting practically full speeds until a few days ago. At this moment im getting 789KB/s as my top speed. Im on 20mb O2.

Rapidshare is fine........:confused:



you are using all 20 connections?

Er, just checked Agent settings and 'Maximum Allowed Connections = 2' lol, maybe Im not then :). I havent changed anything lately and the speed has dropped last few days. Ill change it to 20 and see what happens.

Cheers fella.

*edit* I love you (in a manly way of course). Changed to 20 and the download speed shot up. :D

sorry to go offtopic a little, but i was just thinking about trying the $11/month deal with astraweb, and i noticed on the checkout a phone number is required, but it says to use "Format: xxx-xxx-xxxx 8 char minimum". Im guessing thats the US format for phone numbers, but what should people with a UK number do?

I click on buy now and it goes to a checkout page at 2checkout.com. The only other option there is a 'now accepting paypal' button, which when i click goes to the same astraweb page, but replaces 'buy now' with 'buy now with paypal'.
