Re: "all 64-129kbps of it"???

I mean, 64-128 kbps is like...

8-10Kb/sec

so like, talking for a good 1 hr will not even be that much.

Most VOIP providers complain at about the 3000 minute mark, so

129kbps * 3000 min * 60 sec / 8 (bits/byte) / 1024 (KB/MB) / 1024 (MB/GB) = 2.7 GB per month.

Most don't use 3000 minutes and most don't use more than 90 kbs.

You are not looking at the larger picture, they are probably looking at all users that use the service.

Lets say the average is about 400 and there are 200 users on your network using it per month:

129kbps * 400 min * 60 sec / 8 (bits/byte) / 1024 (KB/MB) / 1024 (MB/GB) = .3GB per month per user.

With 200 users that is (.3 * 200) = about 73GB per month

I guess what I'm saying is that if I'm paying for "Broadband" and 2.7 GB / Month is a big deal, then I'm buying my "Broadband" from the wrong company.
