Hmm yeah, Maybe thats what I'm experiencing here.

Yeah fair enough, Even http traffic is excessively slow on this end. 13KBps in fact. My connection has passed speed tests at over 4Mbps!

They state that they will shape p2p during peak times, its outside peak times.
my mate can easily get 100kBps on p2p even during peak times but I cant get over 30, something is wrong here.
