Nothing new on my part. I think as long as you have set the number of connections in server settings to the amount that your provider allows you should definitely see a big jump in speed. I have mine set to 20 connections because that is all my provider allows but I only pay 5 bucks a month so I'm pretty happy with them. I can upload at a bit over 1MB/s with this setup. With powerpost I was lucky to get a stable upload at half of that speed. I think it would be faster for me if the server wasn't a few thousand miles from me lol.
It'll be interesting to see if you get better performance. If not then I'd say it might be a physical limitation between you and the server.
