Hi all - am a premium/home customer.

uploads are way below 10tb, but linked my opendrive to rclone. I did not subscribe to Opendrive to hoard data, but just to keep my more valuable multimedia items, and access them via Rclone when needed.

Suddenly my downloads are being throttled to 500kb/s which is causing severe buffering. This is not what I signed up for - the terms and conditions say that "OpenDrive does not throttle download speeds on any of its plans, including the free one" I've tested in multiple locations, with/without VPNs, and the speed is the same

Can someone please advise.

If this is a limitation of Opendrive, I'm going to have to migrate elsewhere - but the terms and conditions strictly say

Premium accounts are supposed to have unlimited downloading speeds.

Thanks

  • There are no clear terms or notices that premium users should expect throttling or speed limits.
  • While they mention "excessive usage" for storage or bandwidth on Unlimited plans, this mainly refers to uploaders and large-scale storage use, and my usage doesn’t come close to those limits.
