Re: Running a server and your TOS

Well I contacted their support to see about usage caps and if the trucks I've been using are an indication of the upgrade and got this:

Thank you for contacting Armstrong support, Zoom does not limit Internet usage to any of our customers. So you can technically upload and download all month and there is no limit on how much can be uploaded or downloaded. Unfortunately we are unaware of the time frame for the complete rebuild of the cable system to allow us to deliver all of our services to your area, however if you have been seeing the trucks in the area more then likely that is the construction crew that is doing the rebuild. If you have any further questions please contact our technical support at 1-877-486-4666, our hours of operation are:

Monday – Friday: 8am - Midnight
Saturday: 8am - 10pm
Sunday: 2pm - 10pm

So I'm not too worried about it.

If they designed their network like they did during their rebuild in Southern Ohio several years ago things should be very reliable.

However, hope they don't underestimate their backbone needs as when they went live with their service in Southern, Ohio. They initially had only a T1, their only tier was 512K down and 256K up. Once they got a faster Backbone everything was very reliable. Now they have at least 5M Down and 512K up. Not sure if they currently offer anything faster.

Their speed tiers go 256k, 5000k, then 10000k. We're neighboring a few communities that they've served since cable came out. I assume we're going to be on the same bus. They almost have the entire south end of our township wired, my street included, and they only started deploying the new cabling last Monday, though they've been putting up the support wiring to hold the cabling up since November. It may be just a couple of months.
