Hi guys, I wonder if anyone else is experiencing same major change of evening speed as I do lately.
I bought the full package Tooway "Unlimited" in February 2013. I live in Ireland, Kildare county. First few weeks were excellent and I went a little bit crazy on the traffic. Netfix, youtube, twich etc. Then I noticed change of speed. I didn't pay much attention to it then. it was wery small change. Then Tooway has moved me to Europasat or they re-branded or something. And the speed went down the hill from there. After a while I got fed up and start calling the support. After 10 calls to the Tooway/Europasat I was finally told there is something like FUP. This was never mentioned anywhere in the contract when I signed, or on the chat with the sales person or anywhere at that moment. But fine. Whatever. I will be nice from now. That was in August last year last year. It took me a while to get my act together by by the beginning of December 2013 I was a nice user. I got my self the  NetWorks program to monitor my traffic. All during the time I was on the naughty list the traffic was okish during the evening. Now by OK-ish I mean 50-250kbps in the evening. And in December I was put back on normal user list. "Wooohooo" I was thinking. Now I am getting incredible speed of 0-30 kbps if the speedprobe doesn't time out, which it does about 70% of the time. What is happening? I was thinking that staying bellow the limit will make things better for me not worse. During the day the internet is back to 10-15 Mbps but coming 5pm it is unusable. I need internet for my work, so now I have it only for work but I need to work in the evening as well, but I can't. Has somebody else the same issue as I do? Or is this only me?

Thank you guys for any help or clarification I can get.

But maybe I red the wrong thing do you mind to give me a link to the thread you have in mind pls. Thx JJ

Forgive my ignorance, what exactly is a low user beam?
:)

All people with "unlimited" package have the same problem (including me)

The means of unlimited is unlimited data, but NOT always at full speed.

In my web page, I have to information, please, read it:

Update:

Hi guys,

So me speed problems were due to my past excessive use of the internet. Fair enough.

All is better now :)
