Re: Definition of broadband If you don't over sell your equipment's capacity, you wouldn't have the problem. Like I said, maintaining at least 80% of that speed 100% of the time.
The way it is now, they can sell you a 30Mbit/sec plan, but if you only get 6Mbit/s they can tell you to just deal with it as it does say "up to". Not a good business model, but seems to work well for the tel/cable companies.
Caps are caps, and although has no role in the definition of broadband, it would be nice to see some sort of mandate that IF they are to cap/charge per GB, that they must provide a reliable way of checking used bandwith as measured by them. |
