ok

do you mean kilobytes or kilobits, it looks like you're talking about bytes for download and bits for upload.

Re: ok

Uhh, usually kb/s means Kilobytes per second, if I said kbps, that means kilobits per second. Major differencial.

Actually, its:

kb/s or kbps (lowercase B) is kilobits per second.
kB/s or kBps (uppercase B) is kilobytes per second.

Mb/s or Mbps (lowercase B) is megabits per second.
MB/s or MBps (uppercase B) is megabytes per second.

Little B for little "bits." Big B for big "bytes."

Been that way for YEARS...

Yep...

Upload limit is 7.5 GB per month...

They also limit your downloads to 30GB per month or 2GB per day...

So its not the "unlimited" service advertised in the truest sense of the word like DSL providers.


edit:second month in second sentence should have been day.

Re: upload limits?

Bummer, I have no limits on downloads or uploads with Adelphia, they could care less about it.

Referral

I forgot to mention the excellent referral program, I just referred two good friends, who are considering buying it.This would mean that I would get two months of free service if both of them purchased it. After they compared their DSL connections to my Cable connection, and the price I'm paying, compared to the expensive prices of Sprint, they must think I am getting a good deal.
