Level 1 speed restricted too much

Hi
Could someone please have a look at my restriction?
Premiere 2:
I have gone over 20GB and it currently stands at less than 24GB yet my speed appears to be restricted to 1Mbps. I did several tests during peak time yesterday and again this evening with various speed testers all with the same result.
At the same time I am having trouble accessing the Portal getting time out errors or pages not loading at all. All other internet access seems ok (apart from the above excessive speed restriction).
Cheers
Edit : Portal seems better now; slkow to start but pages do download

Sorry, realised that after I posted which I then removed.
Level 1 should limit you to 2Mbs but remember, its still upto 2Mbs depending on bandwidth availability.

Yes, I realise that, but I would expect it to go over the 1Mbps mark occasionally, even more than occasionally, but it never appears to. That's why I wondered whether something has happened to the restiction level applied in this case.

Re: Level 1 speed restricted too much

Hi there,
We did have a brief problem with the portal just after 6 which has since been resolved. As for the slowdowns, I'm not sure why you're restricted to 1mb though will happily pass a ticket to the networks team to investigate this for you.
Hope that helps,
Mav

Re: Level 1 speed restricted too much

Are you saying I am actually being restricted to 1Mbps or you just need to investigate why I am not getting greater than 1Mbps?

Re: Level 1 speed restricted too much

Having talked to our traffic management guru, he has assured me that your current service offering is correct (premier level 1 management, as per the page here.
This is an up to 2mb service as advised and may run slower depending on the network speeds.
