I have recently left Spidernet after two years.  I have no problems with their service other than using I-choice as the ADSL provider.

I have been using spidernet for quite long time, lately after spidernet removed the compulsory proxies the download speeds seemed to have improved. But still i can say that especially the p2p speeds i get during day time are considerably low (sometimes i cant even connect to p2p peers for several minutes) compared to the almost full speeds i get during the night.

I'm not sure if this is because spidernet is hindering the specific ports and p2p programs but i have to note that im using a bussiness subscription with a static ip (and also nobody else is using the connection both day and night except me)

Also if i continuously download, at regular basis, data from the web (over port 80 e.g. from browsing and html links) for several days my download speeds keep getting lower and lower with an average of 31.25 kByte/s, this is especially true for day time. (And i checked and it is not because of the server i download from, people using other ISPs like netway dowload at FULL speeds all hours of the day).

And at last i would like to note that "what is advertise is not what you get", my average speed is 839 Kbits/s down with 106kbits/s up
