Hi Geeks. My Isp is Terranet, i have been having great speeds after 2am over 80k for over 2 years; However, for the last 8 days i can't even get 40k if i am lucky, anyone having any issues like that. I am a heavy downloader but that never was a problem.

Thanks.
Well i guess they FUP'ed you for downloading too much. Its happening in every ISP except Ogero.
You have been subject to FUP (fair usage policy) i.e. bull shit.

Basically, according to them, you are making too much traffic to the point where you affect others and thus it is just fair that they limit you ... hence fair usage policy, get the point ?

yeah i know its kind of gay, and it sort of kills the whole idea of unlimited but this happens all over the world, not only Lebanon, but here they limit connection from like 512 to 256, outside its like from 10 megs to 5 megs so not much of a problem :P

The only reason why it doesn't happen with ogero is because nobody dares download that much xD
I dont know how many times I heard this complaint.

Yep, but the difference is that in Lebanon it happens to anyone who does more then check his mail and a couple of news sites from time to time.

Its similar to a song that sticks to your head and everyone keeps repeating over and over...

I think some ogero customers have have their account connected to their bank account, so the surcharge will be billed. Also, there is no "unlimited" period, so customers are careful, and also I dont think there is an FUP anyway, since there is no "unlimited" feature.\

I was FUP'd over a year ago, but the sentence is from 11 pm untill 2 am, my speed is basically less than dial up, however, i used to enjoy great speeds after 2 am. Now i am limited to 42 k exact, the weird thing that it doesn't change. it stays constant. I thought that satellite connections aren't constant, that only means that my ISP is script limiting my speed.
