My current (small) hotel has a 100 Mbit uplink. But even that becomes congested in the evening. I heard from guests who use Bittorrent, because the uplink is fast.
So a faster uplink does not mean, that you get fast internet. People are just selfish and greedy.

- einrealist 12y agoThey say that the traffic is shaped. But it does not feel like that. Maybe their router is just to slow to handle all those connections.
- cnst 12y agoOften only the downstream is shaped; if you have lots of p2p, you might want to ensure they do traffic shaping for upstream, too. Where's your hotel? How'd you manage to get 100Mbit uplink? :-) Most hotels I've stayed at have either Cable (if it's 3* or below), or DSL / T1 (if it's something like 3*+ Hyatt Place), and they're all ridiculously slow.
