Ono Download Capping in Barcelona: Options?

You should stick it to ONO and vote with your wallet.

It is common knowledge that ONO does traffic shaping or worst, blocking(they have even admitted it at some point).
I would suggest to hop over to ADSL (CATV networks have no competition in Spain hence the snobbishness)in this order-if available in your residential area:

1)Jazztel (solid service-decent prices-possibility of unbundled loop).
2)Ya.com (tend to have best deals*-possibility of unbundled loop)
3)Orange (kind a chaotic ISP but with a big backer-France Telecom-possibility of unbundled loop)
4)Telefonica (service safer of them all, but the most expensive).

*10Mb/512k+VOIP national calls+line service fee on a naked ADSL line for aprox. 33€/month (12 months only,limited and time sensitive offer-after that goes up).

FT bought Ya.com so Orange and Yacom belong the same corporation with separate structures for now.

You need to order a phone line from Telefonica (excluding Jazztel, that can place the order for you) in order to get ADSL installed by its competition (for at lest 5 months when it will be possible to order directly the copper from the ISP´s).

All the ISP´s above noted don't screw with your traffic, excluding the questionable on and off use of a traffic proxy server by Telefonica.

Beside Telefonica and Jazztel the other 2 have 1 year contract.
Good luck!
