Re: Updated Cox HSI Limitations of Service

well, then that means if there strictly enforced, then i may have to give up on vonage. 90K uses a lot of bandwidth and, if i were to make a call, that can chew up on it pretty fast.

also, there's no meter like comcast has, either.

but, i'm assuming the limits are going to be enforced loosely. everyone was at 60 gigs and now 256 gigs is a lot.

(sorry, cox but your phone service is too expensive for me)

rob, not 90kilo*bytes*, 90kilobits...and most call signaling is g711.ulaw plus control, which is much closer to 80kbps
lets take a 60 minute phone call.
80kilobits divided by 8 bits per byte = 10 kilobytes a sec.
multiply that by the 3600 seconds in a minute and you have...36000 kilobytes, or about 36meg.
if you *can't* spare 36meg for a phone call, you need to analyze what you're doing online.

methinks you're just spreading fud to find something to complain about. again.

q.

[edit] and its not 256gigs. its 250 for premier and 200 for preferred.
