| Re: [Connectivity] My account was suspended for exceeding the in You have to see Comcast's point. An 8Mb connection equates to 3.6GB per hour. Therefore, at 672GB in 30 days you were running the connection at over 25% of its absolute maximum capacity 24/7. This must be way beyond the 'normal usage' figures that Comcast use when planning their capacity (and pricing). | |

This must be way beyond the 'normal usage' figures that Comcast use when planning their capacity (and pricing). If the OP was using 672 GB/mo (the amount he quoted before his later edit), he was using a 24/7 average of 2.1 Kb/s or 259 KB/s.
edit: not 294 KB/s as I posted earlier
That would burn 840 CDs or 149 DVDs a month.
And if the trigger point (aka "limit") is 600 GB, that's an average of 1.9 Kb/s or 238 KBps 24/7.

Whatever the actual number though, I think it is clear that nobody can see a plausible legal reason as to how the OP used so much bandwidth. | |

| This is besides the point man. FALSE Advertising!! If you aren't going to allow unlimited bandwidth usage. Do not offer/ advertise it. And you sure as hell don't write up service contracts that say "unlimited" although even if there were some fine print I am sure that an case could be made purly on the big bold "Unlimited" on all the crappy fliers that they send me. | |
