We pay about that for ADSL, (£15 for the broadband, £10 to rent the phone line), and we are currently etting about 13 Mbit down and 1.5 up.  Used to be mroe like 17 down but the line went shit about a year ago, when they built a new health centre between us and the telephone exchange.

And there's no usage limits.

just checked with my ISP, it says ~
"This month you've used 286.23GB"
quite pleased mine is unlimited

(much video streaming, considering giving up TV altogether)

This is from my laptop and Sabnazb.  There are 3 more laptops and two desktops in the house. And my webserver.

I have unlimited data, 25/5 from Comcast but I'd like to go with a 50/10 at some point.

Router stats since I got a new router

I must admit, that made me chuckle.

Usage for December 124.33GB

Seems I am a lightweight.

Also blue. Fuck rich text editing.

My router says 182GB received, but neglects to tell me if that is the WAN side or all network traffic.

All the cool people use blue text these days!

Lies.

That's impossible on dial-up.

(giggle)

Well according to our account information, for November we used 100Gs of 250G. However, they're not enforcing their cap. It doesn't say why, just they're not enforcing it.

We top out at around a 105MBs per second for $65 a month. We use Basic Talk for our phone, which only runs us $12 a month. Any TV shows or movies we want to see we watch on Netflix or on the web.

When you consider most networks have their own sites where you can watch their shows, and places like Netflix at $8.99 a month, plus RabbitTV at $10 a year, I really don't see why anyone gets cable for actual TV anymore.

Like I told my neighbor, pay for a good internet speed, and if you get what you pay for, you can get Basic Talk for phone and you don't need cable for TV entertainment. It'll save you a fortune.

Back when I had one of their bundles, Comcast phone was $45 a month and the cheapest TV cable was like $30 for less than a dozen crap channels, without internet. They probably cost more now.

I'd rather find my TV and movie entertainment online, then I can watch it on my schedule, and depending on the site, without commercials, plus it won't cost me any extra for it. High speed internet takes care of it all, and costs me half as much. :)

I'm now at 444.10 gig in 60 days. I'm going to run out of storage space soon.

I think my record was probably 400 GB in 2 weeks when I bought a new external HDD at Uni and let everyone else in the house auto add torrents to utorrent.

I think it was at that point where Tiscali offered me out of my contract.

:'D

 

It was perfect timing because I had been waiting for BeThere to be enabled at my exchange and they arrived about a month earlier.

Surprised that ISPs aren't running some kind of blacklist for people like us :D
