I have found that earlier i used to get the speeds of about 100KBps + while downloading but now 8KBps at max. The reason they give is that now ur connection has been provisioned so max speed of 64kbps or 8KBps will be there.
Yeah, their current explanation is right. The so-called hotwire gold connection restricts you to 64kbps.
The reason you could download at high speeds earlier was probably because they were taking so long to figure out how to do proper bandwidth allocation/management. :-P
Even nowadays sometimes their bandwidth capping slips mostly really late in the night, and slimy opportunists like me try to download the latest Fedora/what-not isos over the night. :)
