So, Many are reporting that AT&T is throttling video with some proof on Fiber 1000. This is applying to apple tv, YouTube, Hulu, etc. Do you have full control of what happens to data packets on lines that you lease? Is there any throttling happening to your customers?
The way someone described it is they were working with a Hulu engineer and what they uncovered is in AT&T Fiber 1000 that their speeds would look fine until 5 minutes after starting a stream where it would drop from 900mbps to 5mbps making the stream buffer. Then, if he connected through a VPN this issue would disappear.
I have seen this myself but I think it is because of my extender that connects my living room to the office so do not think it is happening at the ISP level.
Thanks.
