Author Topic: Comcast Users - Prepare For Changes  (Read 1397 times)

You already had a cap, you just didn't know about it. It's been 250GB for a long time.

"On October 1, 2008, we amended our Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) available at http://www.comcast.net/terms/use/ to establish a specific monthly data usage threshold of 250 GB/month per account for all residential customers."

but in some places that cap doesn't even exist.
my place falls under that.

then i don't have a cap and im not a residental customer, huzzah!
otherwise i would've hit it during my download spree of november 11-17th, where i was downloading 50 GB a day.
dont forget my other people in the family where they helped in the download coming.
also, i downloaded a stuffload of games off of steam this month, why didn't i hit it now?

Why are you so defensive about it? Unless you have a business class internet connection (which you probably don't) you have a cap. End of story.

i have a relative who works for comcast, free cable and internet, and half off phone.
of course i'm not going to have data caps if it's going to be free anyways.

i host multiple minecraft servers a day/week/month, and we only use about 30GB out of our 250GB.

How do you know which plan you have? I just know I have Comcast :(

In other words you just disregard everything he said.

>1 mb/s
can you spare me dome bandwidth

0.010 MB/s.
can you spare me some bandwidth

20 mb/s download
1mb/s download

Except when the power goes out, the modem goes out, so we need power for phone and internet.

Also, at my grandparents' house, we have dial-up because they live in the middle of nowhere.
