No caps on business class. I don't believe they offer 8mbps anymore though. I believe the current equivalent is 16mbit.

Re: Comcast business

The above is not correct. There is the same verbiage in the AUP for business class about comcast protecting their network, and there is specific wording about comcast being able to declare your usage exceeding expected usage for a class of service, and you then being offered the choice of ending your service (with the termination fee) or moving to a higher tier service.

They don't say what the cap is, if it is a number.

Not sure that its a way "around" the caps. Tread with caution, read all the stuff before you sign your contract.

Re: Comcast business

To add to this, there is always a cap on every service, and its stated in the AUP by Comcast protecting their network. Its not a hard set limit like the 250GB on residential accounts. I've been using 680-800GB/month since mid last year and Comcast has not said a word. There was another user on here that used 2TeraBytes in 1 month and got a call from Comcast to see why their usage was so high. I would probably say, keep it under 1TB/month and you should be fine. Also, as far as packages go, I think this is how its layed out:
6/1 - $59/month
16/2 - $89/month
If your in a DOCSIS 3.0 area you also have:
22/5 - $99/month
50/10 - $189/month
Please refer to this thread if you don't know if your in a DOCSIS 3.0 area: »Is the DOCSIS 3 rollout complete in your area? Post here.
You could also call Comcast and see what they offer you. Good Luck!
