I re-installed my games PC last night, and I had to do a whole lot of downloading games again. In excess of 300GB. I kicked off the process at midnight , when everyone was asleep and there wouldn't be any complaints about slow interwebs.
I was seeing some very fast speeds indeed at that time, for my location. In excess of 600mbit at times, but mostly around 400mbit. Anyway, about 150-200GB into the downloads (GTA5 alone is now 110GB!!!!) I noticed that I was getting about 20mbit. Odd I thought, but it's mobile 5G so perhaps it's the network.
When I got up this morning, it was still downloading and I had to pause the transfers.
I've since resumed that transfer queue and the same thing has happened again. I was getting 200 mbit download, consistently for about an hour, and now i'm getting 48mbit after downloading at 200mbit for an hour.
Am I being throttled?
The reason I ask is, I pulled out my phone, on the same network, and ran a speedtest on both my phone and my home 5G router that's doing the game downloads. Phone is doing 300mbit, 5G router is doing < 50mbit. There is only one three 5G mast here so it's not a case of one connected to a different tower. This is true of 4G as well, so it's not a different anchor point.
Does anyone else with a three scancom SIM see this?
