Re: FAP said by BF69:said by JDCMAN:-Large scale file transfers between work and home (maybe you do CAD? Video Design?) That sounds like you should be using a BUSINESS account. If I am being charged for a BUSINESS account I expect to be given Business Account type features not just charged more money for the same account as a "residential" account.
This means more than just them upping/eliminating my monthly cap. I want an IPN that is separate from the residential IPN blocks (so I do not get blacklisted if I run an SMTP Server), the right to have my IPN rDNS to my Domain Name not the generic IPN based name, a Static IPN (or at least have the DNS get updated if my DHCP assigned IPN changes), etc. A SLA is NOT something that I would include as required. |

What I am stating is that if the only difference between a "Residential" Account and a so-called "Business" Account is the cost then it is not a TRUE Business Class Account but just a way of charging extra money for no benefit to the user except as protection money to fend off the ISP Goons. What is the extra money supposed to be being charged for and what is the difference in the two accounts? |

What is the extra money supposed to be being charged for and what is the difference in the two accounts? I am a bit confused here. Are you questioning if there is a difference between a business account and a residential account?? If so, feel free to go to any providers website and peruse the details yourself. They all very clearly spell out the differences, which generally include (depending on provider of course) but are not limited to:
1) Static IP 2) Ability to run servers without violating the TOS 3) Higher download/upload 4) "Priority" customer service 5) No caps
Some even come with SLA's. I suggest you read a little more about business class products before you comment further. I can also assure you the extra money paid has nothing to do with "protection money" for the "ISP Goons", whatever that even means. -- Весна прибыла |
