Keep up the pressure

As a recent migrant from Wildblue, I can't encourage others enough to fight this cap/FAP crap before it starts.

I had the 7.5G plan -- at $70+ a month -- and I sprouted a dent in my forehead from desk-thumping in frustration. With two teenagers and a husband who teaches, I got sick to death of playing "Cap Cop" and having to unplug the modem at night to keep the bandwith down. And that was just to avoid being throttled! Satellite providers don't provide very good ways to monitor your bandwith ("google 'Fapzilla' or check out WB/Hughesnet forums) and since the meters aren't real-time, you could go to bed fine and wake up FAPped.

Fight the caps. Don't let them THINK about implementing them. You can lose sleep as well as money worrying about babysitting your bandwith.
