Globelines P2P back in business?

In: Computers| Internet and Web| Technology

18 May 2009

As of 6:35-ish this evening, people have started to report that P2P speeds are now spiking to more decent speeds.

I’m still getting sub-par speed and is quite erratic but something definitely has changed since it’s now breaching the 44-46 kB/s speeds of the past three days. I still can’t say that everything’s back to normal but any change might be an indication that the issue has been resolved.

If speeds finally get back to the way they used to be, then that’s when an appropriate denouement should be written (or maybe an update to this post). Quite honestly, four posts on the issue is already going overboard. For now, everyone’s just hoping that this is not a fluke.

Now only if Globelines will be gracious enough to explain themselves. While we may have jumped the gun assuming all sorts of things, it’s just that their silence has fueled the speculations (conspiracy theories?) as to why the speeds were limited. If the speeds hold, I just hope Globelines provides a decent explanation as to why. If they do, then that’d be good customer service.
