Answer #1
It depends the hour of the day. It is called “traffic shapping” and it is a trick used by ISP company’s. In rush hours (the time when most people go surf the web) they slow down the speed so everyone can have access at moderate speed. It is ilegal by the way, but they do this. Try start a download at 22h and then watch the speed. Probably around mid night it will boost. Here in my country only around 0h00m the speed is boosted to my contracted speed.
It all happens becouse they (ISP) does not have the requirement equipment to support the contracted speed of all their clients if the clients decide to use full speed connection at the same time.
