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?

with a bit of luck it will be your turn for the fix overnight tonight.
Don't get me wrong at the moment the fix is loads better even with that issue i reported about 5 posts back .
The issue is really weird because it seams to do it only for about 5 mins at a time and then just goes back to full speed 31MB down to 5MB and then straight back to 31 .
it odd because its all or nothing ,
its like the node or link suddenly gets a load of data dropped on it which makes it overloaded . and then it take 5 minutes to catch up and then its seams ok

So, my Internet just dropped...

I pray everything is working fine.
Yup 1080/60 is working fine.

Speeds were never an issue with me, but Twitch Buffering was and it seems to still be fixed @10:47

Glad some folks are getting this fix - still the same old ~3Mbps on fast.com for me - I fully expect I will be on the final node to be updated the way this is going!
It would be really helpful for a little more explanation of which areas/exchanges are serviced by each "node"...

Hey. If you have a fault raised for it and the Tech team are aware, they should be able to tell you which date your 'node' is due to be completed. Might at least provide you with a date from when you should be seeing these improvements.
