The data allowance was exhausted . It's the 5Gb package , £1 mnth for 3 mth
d/l at 6-8KB torrent in background , using 4g phone hotspot , internet keeps disconnecting too
ee is my best signal by far
With my mediocre 3 connection the download goes up to 80-100+ (now 600KB! )

Feels pretty unusable actually. https://speedtest.net took 2.5 minutes to load and didn't run even after waiting 3 minutes. Switched to https://fast.com which also didn't run and had plain HTML reporting an unstable connection.

what about
 
Thanks for confirming this. My 3 business £5+vat now 7.50+ doesn't seem quite that bad now.
However it's caused me to sign up for a cheap 150 fibre contract - £15/mth 18mth just this afternoon

I'm struggling with these technical issues but is it because my phone isn't throttling 2Mb or less ?
I set max torrent d/l to 3Mb/s but just saw 70kb + or -

Contractually, out of allowance, you expect 64 kbit/s (8 KB/s). This thread suggests you could expect 2.0 Mbps or higher in bursts but you will be throttled down over some window of time so the pauses might feel like disconnections or could actually cause disconnections.

I wouldn't recommend to torrent using free throughput of 64 kbit/s as it risks this being removed for everyone. 70 kbps is roughly what is promised contractually.

If your data package is used up, you can continue using the data free of charge at a throttled speed of 64kbit/s.

Thanks for your commonts but a lot is way over my head.
The disconnects were the last straw so I'll be off the mobile next week.
Not doing very well with it , even 3 said I could cancel my cheapie unlimited sim 5 months into 24 because of issues .
