I can't buy a router at the moment, things are not easy, and with the holidays coming, it's even harder. I had a look to see how much would I be in for and it's very much outside my budget.
Thank you nonetheless, maybe it's something I will be able to afford at some point in the future.
Ah, I used the speedtest tool of cloudflare, ookla and openspeedtest. You are referring to https://iperf.fr/, right? When I get home I'll read how to do it properly!
No, I tried with a number of ports all on the 40k and 50k.
That's a great point!
Yeah, I think I'm just delaying the inevitable. I'll call the ISP in a couple hours and maybe it will be time to look for a christmas deal with airvpn.
Yes, I checked if they were open, and the three sites say they are. I used the ones you sent me, and same results!
Some pwople say that they might be throttling my connection, and I think it is what makes more sense. I'll have a call with them to see what is happening.
Thanks for pointing out the router firewall, didn't think about it, but iy is not that either.
Other traffic is fine. That's what was screwing with me, but after reading some people say they might be fucking with my connection due to seeing it is a bittorrent connection, everything makes more sense.
I'll look into it, but I don't think this is something I would be capable of doing. Would a couple of raspberrys work?
I would really like avoiding a VPN. Money is tight rn and it's another payment at the end of the month.
The speed test looks fine. Maybe they meter it as you say. Guess I'll have to contact them so they can explain wtf is happening to my connection.
No! Should I?
Man, if this is the simplified version, I'm totally fucked. I understand every word, but the order in which they are stringed together confuses me.
I'm waiting for a call of my ISP's IT service to see what's what. If they can't (or won't) fix my issue, I'll bite the bullet and I'm gonna buy a subscription to a VPN.
Thank you for the detailed explanation!
