Re: Faster

I dont exactly know what you mean by "download caps" but there has been a few times that i was capped at the wrong speeds for the package i was signed up for, which was corrected after i made a fuss and pointed out the problem, but this is probably something completely different.

Comcast, for example, warns you if you download too much in a monthly period. If you continue to download more than they want you to, they terminate your service.

From the post I was responding to:

More Broadband companies are setting up Download/upload caps... It takes about 2 hours to download 1 gig of a divx movie on cable here...You can't watch many hours of divx movies online with that kind of download caps. Alot of people had their cable accounts cancelled for exceeding the download/upload caps...
Yes, SBC has speed caps, but not download caps.
