There is a rumour that the ADSL conection (in my country) could be limited to to 4gbs per month . This mean that the downstream and upstream is limited to 4gb /month. If you pass that limit , they charge you per gb consumed.
Could you tell me how does the payment for your Inet connection works? is it like this one?
We need Info from other countries in order to sustent a legal demand that some users are going to do , because the contract doesnt says anything about it.
Geee , thx

<a href='http://adsl.internode.on.net/pricing/home.htm' target='_blank'>This</a> is an example of ADSL pricing in Australia at the moment if anyone is interested.
If you leave te PC connected doing nothing , this would take Bits/Bytes/Megas/etc out of the 4 gb stock.
Thats why it is sh!t <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
Not much, it's not more than 50 MB a day.
Granted I am in the US and that is usually how it works, they give you unlimited for a monthly fee. (If I am wrong, please correct after all I live in SD.) :-)
I would try to have that not pass, although 4GB is quite a bit, unless you are a pirate.
Totally unmetered. We could use as much as we like whenever we like for £23.00 a month for 512KB/s Broadband. Payment was just direct debit.
Connection now 1.5MB/s Cable
Sorta unmetered connection. The terms and conditions say we can use as much bandwidth as wel like aslong as it doesn't hamper other users performance, if it does and we are deemed to be using an unreasonable ammount they will take action. They reccomend around 1GB a day, we have been using around 5 a day still no problems.

I disagree it's not alot. Fair enough browsing webpages isn't going to rack up to 140Mb ish a day. But consider the other legal things you can do such as stream radio, download demo's, play online games, yadda yadda yadda and you can easily use that much.

I don't keep track with what we use at work, although with six computers, I am sure it is well above 4GB.
Limit of about 200 gigs a month down and 100 up. Nothing set it stone, just what I have read what they get annoyed at when you go over it <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
As for 4 gigs being alot. Today alone I will have downloaded over 4 gigs. The World of Warcraft Beta Client, 2 more game demos, and Counter-Strike:Source.
Anything less than ... ohh... 30 gigs a month would kill me. I average 100 gigs a month right now down.
theres no bandwidth limit, which is good because i use about 1gbyte down daily.
If your ADSL company starts charging based on usage, tell them how much you like them by changing provider companies.
actually, Azureus is showing downloaded 48GByte, uploaded 79GByte over 7 weeks uptime!
