Ok so since i got my BT infinity connection, after conducting many upload tests it does appear as a single upload is around 6Mb/s at maximum.

My upload speed is around 18Mbit.

If i for example, upload file A to person A, it will go at 6Mb/s.. If i then upload File B to person A it will also go at 6Mb/s And then file C to person B also its 6Mb/s (all at the same time).

Speedtest.net seems to be uploading @ the maximum, also Google drive.

What software can i use that will support multiple connections to the same person, same file, so i can always upload at max speed?

I've had a look at filezilla but from what i gather this option is removed due to overheads?
 
Seems a bit hit and miss to me - uploading to my dedicated server just then to test (100Mbit up and down with no issues at all on the host end) was flat lining at 3Mbit/s :( definitely something on BT's end.

Upload to youtube and a couple of other file hosting sites - atleast one of which I know has no limits - again flatlines at 10Mbit/s as if a limiter is in place - whereas common speed test sites are all 18-19Mbit/s and less common ones 3 or 6mbit. (No QoS on my end other than the stock BT modem one that stops any single upload exceeding 90% of the upload capacity).
 
Have you got a Hub4 + Openreach modem or just the HUB 5. Is there a chance that the rooter/modem is doing the limiting?

Are you on ethernet or wireless, seems my wireless is just dodgy, on speedtest.net my laptop gets 15Mbit/5Mbit vs my PC @ 75Mbit/18Mbit or so. Im completely baffled as to why the laptop is 15/5 and not 15/15 if the wireless is slowing it down. (FYI i didnt bother to plug the cable into my laptop and see what happens then)

Check it on mega.co.nz, there i get the full upload speed, also on google drive.. I havent tried youtube or other file hosting sites.
