Real Time Usage and Transfer Rates
Hey, I did so well with the vonage one, why not Skype?

Basically, Skype while in call uses about the same bandwidth as your 40 kilobit connection via a 56K analog modem (not even close to a full 56K connect speed). How can they say this affects their network? If their network is so bad that it can't handle data transfer at less than a crappy 40 k/bs connection, it's greed that would hurt VoIP technology and Skype, not bandwidth. Trying to limit Skype for business reasons, I can agree with if you don't want employees to use it. But trying to limit a residential broadband user because it "uses too much bandwidth" is pure and utter Bull*hit!!

I hope this screen shot one gets posted around in the future as well.
