Re: [News] Comcast imposing invisible caps again
said by rdelp  :My aveage monthly has been 300GB - 600GB a month on average over the past 3 years. Jeezus. I had to try to hit 250GB or so myself in a month. We average (my 2 brothers and I, no we dont live with mommy and daddy we're in our mid 20's) about 100-150GB a month or so downloading whatever. 600GB is insane as already noted. You should really introduce your kids to something else besides the net.
600GB... Damn man. |

Most of it is work related, plus the kids each have a computer, streaming Tv/radio, cinemanow.com downloads those are only a gig each, not that bad.

Just for curiosity's sake, WTF are you downloading that much for anyways?
What exactly ARE you downloading?
That's ~694MB per hour @ 500GB per month.

My aveage monthly has been 300GB - 600GB a month on average over the past 3 years. I can understand why that would be a problem on the standard accounts, have no problem paying extra either, I just was ticked the way the handled it 2 years ago. Now they are doing the samething.
I do monitor these boards off and on and had seen many report that standard accounts were running up to 500GB with no problems. So I was not worried being on the Pro.
Last month I went over the 600GB, but I know I had a couple of times earlier last year. Nothing was said, so I am ASSUMING this is starting this year.
I just noticed one of the other topics about 16Mb download speeds. If my memory is correct, 2 years ago they were doubling speeds.

You have a ballpark on how much you downloaded to trigger the call? |
