Thats what I was afraid of. I it was your fault, you could fix it. If it's Free's fault, nothing can be done :P
Thanks oles.

no problem with free. we have a very good connexion with them
and a private peering (4x10G) it works fine. the rest (the
free's network) I don't control.

Update: 88.164.14.221 is now (at 3AM, GMT +1) downloading at about 360KB/s. The other user is still downloading painstakingly slow though.

I meant at OVH and most backbone routers, you'll find most do the same. Home routers I wouldn't expect it to happen to though.

Since all timeouts are on the other ISP network (.proxad.net) you will have to contact them.

Although free.fr... anything for free makes me worry

I have two friends using proxad.net hosts, they have dsl/cable form Free.fr I believe it's called. One gets about 5KB/s and the other gets between 15-25KB/s, both of them have a max download of at least a few 100KB/s.

It's been the same speeds since I got this server for these two users, so a couple weeks now at least.
