Comcast 250 GB cap all tiers Charter 15 Mbps and under 100 GB, 16-25 mbps 250 GB, 26 Mbps and over no cap At&t caps 20,40,60,80 and 150 GB. TW 5,10,20,40 GB.
at&t caps are a joke too but at least they start out with 20 GB not 5.
But road runner took it to the next step they should be praised not insulted!!! If I was an ISP I would do something like this... 1GB CAP for lowest Tier 2GB CAP for next higher 3gb cap for next higher 4gb etc and higher... 1 dollar per GB is awesome... The ISP doesn't pay per GB but per megabit I heard it was 4-5 dollar per MBIT
24.99 for lowest tier at 768k 20gb usage.... tackled 19.00 = a total of 43.99 an extra profits of 19.00 AWESOME

Uh, you're doing it wrong. ISPs and co-location customers are typically billed either on a weekly average or a 95th percentile utilization of a bandwidth of x Mb/s. They can easily go through hundreds of GB a month and not exceed their allotment of bandwidth OVER TIME (the unit measure is Mb/s where "s" is seconds). A cap works off of an *ABSOLUTE* counter wherein after one exceeds that absolute cap of GB, either an alternate (read: SLOW) traffic shaping plan is applied to that user or they get billed for overages. In other words, the "OVER TIME" bit is one whole month for the poor residential cap victim, GB/m. That's a BIG difference.
