said by BiggA:The problem is, they are selling absurdly high speeds for the connection back to the CONUS that they have. They should scale back their speeds and offer Unlimited, or at least offer that as an option...
They're also providing service in an extremely expensive location to do so for an ISP, and they're being obnoxious and tricky about the way that they are passing those costs on to their customers.
I'm not sure what the right answer is for them, but these plans are pretty darn bad. They should be able to do better than this in Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau, etc, even though some of the rural areas are going to have really bad service due to limited connectivity with the outside world (satellite or microwave).
Caps does nothing to stop congestion. So even if they are overselling their backbone, caps wont help.
Only QoS, throttling to slower speeds, or increasing their back bone can stop congestion.
The big problem is their costs are probably less than $5 a month per connection, so where is all your monthly fee going?
