Re: Not all p2p rapes your Web traffic said by peerimpact:Peer Impact tries to attempt to keep as much traffic as possible within an ISPs network and only reaches out when it needs to find a chunk it cant find locally and it also keeps the nodes sorted geographically so network members can receive a faster download Agreed, and no I don't believe all P2P is bad, I use it quite often myself  The RCN implementation in it's current state does some of this traffic cop model. If the content is seeded on net by a RCN sub that someone one net is looking for it will redirect to that on-net seed. And there obviously no limits to the download nor to the seed. (as long as its on-net)

| What RCN is complaining about is traffic going OFF network, if it's excessive, they pay big time.
Residental connections are just that. Residental, if you want 24/7/365 connectivity, get some Dark Fiber from RCN.

VOIP uses some upload, if you have people using too much upload, voice data gets slowed down.

That's quite expensive considering some people could upload 10 GB a month with P2P easily
There has to be reasonable rules in place, in order to protect infrastructure. Those CISCO CMTS's are expensive
Froogle says: "CISCO UBR N+1 RF SWCH FOR CMTS RTR
Price: $22,392 - $25,052
Description from CaliforniaPC: UBR-RFSW - CISCO UBR N+1 RF SWCH FOR CMTS RTR"
Be reasonable its a RESIDENTAL connection you know. They say in their TOS/AUP that the service is provided on a "24/7 Best Efforts" basis
