- I called the Bell regional manager to complain about very poor network connection mainly relating to ping speeds. I was told that online games are detected as file sharing by their traffic shaping software. The speed of torrents is being slowed by delaying packets, not by reducing download speed. This simply makes downloading torrents slow (due to the nature of torrents), however it makes playing online games impossible! This is a net neutrality issue! Call bell and insist that this kind of service is UNACCEPTABLE!!!

"As ordered by the CRTC, Bell has released (some) of its data on how torrents and P2P in general are affecting its network. Even though there's not much data to go on, it's pretty clear that P2P isn't the crushing concern. Over the two-month period prior to their throttling, they had congestion on a whopping 2.6 and 5.2 per cent of their network links. They don't even explain whether this is a range of sustained congestion, or peaks amongst valleys."
