Iv hit the bandwidth wall every day for the past week.

Yeah, I get it. I am new user with really low Steem Power and I post a ton of content. Atleast I can say that none of it whatsoever is spam.

When i first ran into this issue i was dumbfounded, but quickly did some reading and learned everything you summarized in this informative post.

Since i don't plan on buying any Steem Power, waiting is what I do.

I have noticed the bandwidth allowances drop dramatically from 12Mb right now at midnight on Tuesday EST to around 150 kb or less during the morning hours. I theorize its the incredible amount of accounts and spam bots from the Asian and Indian nations that load the system to capacity.

Then, when they are working the network is solid. There definitely seems to be a larger load on the system during the morning and mid day hours for the Eastern United States.

Oh well. Steem is for everyone!

I just started my account today. When I was about to get my official password for Steemit, the sign up page said I couldn't log in because my bandwidth was exceeded.

That was very strange to me because I hadn't even logged into Steemit for the first time yet!

After reading your post here though @biffybirdcam, things now make sense.

I probably couldn't log into the system for the first time because it was too early in the day. I most likely got that error message because the bandwidth was overworked (or pirated) by too many other accounts or spam bots.

While I understand that everyone has to work their way up the totem pole in order to get more bandwidth and to up their Steem Power, this news is still mildly discouraging to hear.

For newbies like me, the climb up the Steemit ladder will be a slow one ... but I am more than willing to be patient. I am also happy to start my 2018 journey here and can't wait to see where it will lead.

That is odd actually. Do you remember what error you got? It could have been an unrelated issue as part of the signup process.

I don't remember what the full error message said when I was trying to get in for the first time, but I'm sure the message included "bandwidth exceeded" because I ended up looking for what the term meant on Google this morning.

After reading up on the bandwidth issue, I waited for about an hour and then tried to log in. This time it worked. :)

I guess it was something fishy with my new account though. Maybe a glitch.
