| Restore token Just a quick question. Do you still have to be over your limit to use a restore token? I think that is so stupid. Say you run your rollerover down to 20% and think well Ill use my free token for the month to get it back up to 80 can you? It would suck it you had to run it over your limit then it only reset to 50% or does it reset back to 100% and you get the two days again? |

Thanks, I thought that is how it was. That is so dumb you cannot use a token unless you go over you should be able to use it any time you want. Hughes is getting better but still pointless stuff they do. Maybe its just me. Can anyone else use a token when they are not over the limit? |

| Maybe I'm missing the point of the question, but, you can only get out of jail free after you've actually gone to jail.
Also, you can set it so that your free token is automatically applied when you go over your limit, so there's no muss or fuss............

| Hi, if you have the their download status meter in the tray,
right click to settings to use token automatically so not to break your connection download.
For what's worth... |

Last time I used a token it was a 100% restore.
Set it to auto magically apply if you go over.
Use the Download manager to save you from Downloads that get fragmented and broken.
It only resets once you go over. |

That was always correct in the past, and is still correct if you don't yet have the "Bank" rollover. Since the bank is two-days worth of allowance, once you have the bank a restore only does 50%.
The OP was asking if you get the two-days worth, which you don't, and it implied that he has the Bank, so I responded with my 50% answer.
Most 9000 users now have the Bank. Most 7000 users do not yet have it.

| I would guess that since they seem to do major rollouts usually between Sunday and Tuesdays usually, that we will see a large number of 7000 systems get the rollover in the next couple of days if they are still shooting for a completion date of the 15th.

| It is all so confusing to me. I am numb to it now. The only time I run out of allowance is when my wife messes with Farmville on her iPod, or decides to update her iPod apps. She has some apps for that thing that are larger than my daily download allowance plus yesterdays. I have the 1050 what ever plan.
Only thing I have been able to do is to use the chrome browser and activate "add block" plug in or extension and now the computer loads the forums I visit quickly, as compared to not using the add block.
I think 99% of the slowness is due to the web sites being so graphic intensive. Say I go to my credit union site, there can be ten different things on the page, each one loads stand alone, which means, send request to satellite, then wait for Kansas City to actually go to the site, back to Kansas, back to satellite, back to me.
The Verizon site takes forever to load/download to the computer, same with the Direct TV site.
Web designers should make the sites without all the crap and just fix them so we get the meat instead of the meat, vegetables and desert.
Still better than dial up. |
