Thread Index [isp-wireless] Re: P2P blocking and Mikrotik
The TT CPE allows me to set a pool speed that would be the same for all on one pipe, but if I want to set a user different than others, then I have to set each of those users. We have multiple speed rates. Most of the outbound is set to 128K, then download has 128K, 256K,512K,768K, 1Meg we have 2,3Meg in soon Bob +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ As Seen on The Discovery Channel September & October 2002 !!! - Our Wireless Service Received National Recognition !!!

Your users won't complain, because this is the speed at which they are sharing, not the speed at which they download. They'll still "get" at high speed, they'll just give a lot slower. I think I have my limit set to 100kbps total (not per user).

What would be a good outbound speed that most users would not complain about? 1K/sec seems to be way to low.

That way you're actually helping your customers get better service while not limiting them in the things they want to do. Eddie Fry EAZNet Internet Services -----Original Message----- From: Erik Stave [mailto:erik@pfbiz.com] Sent: Thursday, October 30, 2003 8:35 PM To: isp-wireless@isp-wireless.com There are 5 competitors in our area. We are now restricting all P2P traffic to 512k. You can still download but not too fast. We have 12mb/s of total bandwidth, 512 is not too big a chunk. -----Original Message----- From: Ty [mailto:ty@len-net.com] Sent: Thursday, October 30, 2003 6:56 PM To: isp-wireless@isp-wireless.com Subject: [isp-wireless] Re: P2P blocking and Mikrotik I'm not sure how you can do this for long and get away with it. My customers wouldn't stand for it long. You must not have much other competion in your area. If I did this all of my customers would run for the DSL and cable in the area.

We are blocking P2P file sharing and the results have been very entertaining. People will not actually call up and tell you that Kazaa is not working. It is the "Internet" has stopped working... Or I cannot get to the sites that I need. We have had one customer cancel... Traffic during the daytime has remained the same essentially, but evening and weekend traffic is 25-30% lower.
