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?

Well we will see if that helps everyone....
Mine tonight has been buffering alot...while streaming things. And Xbox drop outs have been plentiful to.. on Ethernet cable to.
Unless that has been the quality router they supply. I'm very close to a 3rd party router that I'm hoping will stop or lesson the drop outs daily

Although Twitch is not buffering this end. Fast.com is all over the place. Several tests reveal anything from between 11 and 69 Mbit/s. I will show the graths for that soon......
