Bell Throttling for Congestion is a joke
Bell Canada has responded to the CRTC concerning their internet throttling practices based on the congestion on the network for each month since March, 2007. I have not seen a single congestion indicator over 10%. What a joke these guys are trying to pull by saying that congestion was high.
Warning, this is where the spin attempts to begin:
As can be observed in the table above, the total percentage of all four types of congested network links during a given month in the period in question has varied between 2.6% and 5.2%. While these numbers may seem low to the average lay person, they are significant to network traffic engineers such that it is important to consider the number of congested links in the proper context.
