Does your ISP throttle your bittorrent traffic?

Test to supposedly find out if your BT traffic is throttled. Seems valid, or at least inline with what I've personally observed.

Looks like my uploads are being throttled but not my downloads.

Booo Comcast.

...and yes, Comcast sucks balls. I had them in California and hated them. It's been widely reported that they've been doing some pretty bad things to their customers as of late and it's all coming out recently (this among them). I don't remember if they're spying on their customers just yet though, that might just be Time Warner or somebody.

I have Comcast and it says I'm fine. Actually, I swear I've seen powerboost even work on my uploads

. Encryption on a non standard port ftw?

Well I mean, my upload speeds on powerboost have been kick ass. Though granted its slower than what I get on FTP, but I don't know if thats due to comcast or what...

apparently I'm possibly throttled on uploads on port 6881 but only possibly

Didn't need the test, I know for a fact that mine's been doing that forever.
