Re: a solution that's apparently not on the table
I don't live there, I haven't followed it closely. But I had several friends leave Sympaco in the last year after they announced selling IPTV on demand or something like that? Now won't that eat up bandwidth?
Hughes this year started a hard hard limit on it's users. At first the casual users thought it was for them to have better access. Later the truth came out of Hughes wanting to put more subscribers per satellite.
Watch what they tell you is the reason.
Plus, IF bit torrent is the problem, why not QoS it down to 1 mbps or so on down and 128 on up. That way they can still play. To all but ban it is arcane.
