testing for traffic shaping?

MikeHunt79 · 26 Jan 2007 at 00:26

Ok, normally downloading torrents is fine... 200k/s as I've got my pors forwarded. My ISP is 186k.

Now, yesterday, they all stopped... all 20 torrents. No uploading or downloading, yet uTorrent says everything is fine. How can I test if my ISP is doing traffic shaping? and is there any way round it?

Haha, I'm surprised that's the only way... At least I've got net access right now, which makes hunting easier. I'm still not 100% sure that there doing traffic shaping yet tho... I'm gonna try some different torrents... Linux distros are always busy
