No, you can blow through your 250GB cap in 11 hours, 27 minutes of constant downloading. Oversubscription at its finest, but not as dire as you'd think...

You do not need to go it all at once. The 250GB at 50Gbs means that you get about 22 minutes a day of full speed downloading (or more download time per day if you go slower) if that 11 1/2 hour figure is accurate. There is also the uploads for ACKing the downloaded packets as well as the real uploads (Email, Web Requests, etc.) that eat into the capped traffic.

1: The 250G cap is just a rumor
2: Odds are any caps, if implemented, would be based on your tier. DOCSIS 3 users would probably have a much higher cap.

How dare you bring sense into what was previously only wild blue speculation?!
