I think all ISPs do that now.
They can't come out and say that they are blocking ports or capping your up and down speeds, so they put on this charade that they are investigating the problem.
If you don't complain they will just leave it and screw you.
I can actually see the speeds being capped. When I restore BC from the task bar, the speeds are higher, and as the window opens you can speeds get lower until they hit that 40 kbps mark.
It was like this earlier, when it capped at 150 kbps up and down, and with my old ISP, Sympatico. But I didn't complain about Sympatico because I was content with speeds of on average 100+ kbps per task. With a good number of seeders, my total downloads peaked at 600 kbps.
