Re: 60G=2000+ hours of online play!?

It averages to about 2 gigs per day which is not a lot. Well for me at least. I like to play games while downloading stuff at the same time. I'm on Express and they sent me a graph showing that I used up 110 gigs which was almost 2 times my limit last month but I guess paying for an extra 25 bucks for 'unlimited' download is not all that bad.

After you screw Rogers like that a few times, they will cut off your service and black-ball you.

 "After you screw Rogers like that a few times, they will cut off your service and black-ball you."

i've gone way way over the caps in the past and not a peep. I've been shut off once when i had a virus spaming 10000 emails an hour. Rogers rep offered to turn the service back on so that i could update my virus protection and clean it. I fixed it and they turned it on. That was actually my last outage in kitchener. 2 years ago.

Do you really think they want to toss your $50 a month? let alone the publicity for doing so.

Maybe if you did 1000 gigs metalhawk, Did you say that from experence?

@grouptelecom.net		 you're being metered at the modem, so although your computer is off or seems too be idle, your modem is still accepting updates etc.so turn it off or unplug at the modem when off for long periods. You're metered both up and down, remember that.
