Here's the proof of throttling - Once I vpn out of the vodafone throttling wall twitch is working perfect at full video source.
PROOF of throttling - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWqlPPGcv6Q
It looks like throttling is around between 3.8 - 4 - once I hit up onto the vpn you will notice i'm up at around 10 and playback is perfect
There's too many other customers on here reporting the exact same issue for it to be a problem our side - I've tested multiple routers etc to rule that out - I created this new thread because now we can see it really is a vodafone problem.
this is my speed
Can you give an estimation when this will be changed back?

We're seeing a lot of positive user performance results from the 2 nodes that have been upgraded so far. The next one is planned for later this evening. There are further one's planned for Thursday and Sunday night, with the final one being on the night of 19 March.
It definitely looks like the upgrades are resolving the issue, so thanks for your patience whilst we looked into it!

Could you give any info on the location of these nodes, for people who haven't gotten a FLT number it could set them at a bit of ease as to when to check if their issue is resolved.

So the fault was single thread but your issue is full speed whether single or multi, the same as it was earlier in the post.

Cant believe how long its taken a company the size of Vodafone to resolve this problem and without compensation either.
Jimbo
Suppose theres still 4 hours left of the '12th'

Well after a brief blip where fast.com was showing 43Mbps, i'm back in Vodafone's natural habitat of 4Mbps
Not much of a fix.

We're asking for the nodes, come on... Can't you just give us what we're asking for..?
How difficult can that be for you?
12-03-2019 10:17 PM
Everything still working better than fine my end. Sorry chaps I must be stealing all your bandwidth.
I echo the thoughts of others who have suffered long enough with these issues just post what nodes are being looked at next and the near future Phil !!!!
