    Slow speeds to the some US networks

    Hello,
    I'm from Italy. I noticed that recently I'm capped at some "slow" speeds I thought it was my ISP but I noticed I get the same speed passing through a VPN hosted in EU. Is there some kind a general "jam" these days from Europe?

    The test files you can use are:

    http://livewinter.com/100mb.test hosted at spotvps
    http://sandroantonucci.com/100mb.test hosted at bigbrainhost

    (they're both able to download/upload at 50MB/s / 10MB/s at least)

    direct connection
    I can't go over 400KB/s.
    If I try to download with multi connections with a download manager I can reach my maximum speed.

    UK VPN
    If I use a UK VPN (ukfree.hideipvpn.com) I can't go over 360KB/s but in the same time with that UK VPN I can download at full speed from microsoft websites, so the two servers appear slow from the UK too?


    US VPN usfree.hideipvpn.com
    I can't go over 230KB/s, well this isn't exactly a good test since it is a free and shared service but I noticed slow speeds reflected in this VPN too.

    Is there a site that can test a file from my servers and report the speeds from various location? I'm not talking about pings but actual speeds

    it sounds like there is a bad switch some place, I would give it a few days for the IPS's to work it out. When bad switchs happens in backbones its not a over night fix.

    Everything should work it self out in a few days / weeks.
