Monthly Fee: $99
Bandwidth: 22Mbit (23-29Mbit in reality) DL, 6Mbit (7-9Mbit in reality). Converts to 3.4Mbyte (average) and 700KB-1.2MByte (average).
Country: USA, IL
Service Provider: Comcast (Unlimited bandwidth, all ports open, no throttling what-so-ever, dynamic IP, and whatever other nice features they gave me)
Package: Business Tier 3

Done over 2.5TB of bandwidth last month with only 3 days not using upload speed -- all based on upload speed. Downloading is like ... too fast, so I only got like 1.5TB or so from DL alone, approx 4TB for last months. No problems, love this connection and loving uploading to you people. <3

22Mbit (29-33Mbit in reality) DL, 6Mbit (7-10Mbit in reality). Converts to 3.4Mbyte (average) and 700KB-1.2MByte (average).
Suppose to only get 22/6, but I'm sucking a lot of bandwidth and I'm thinking I'm ruining stuff on my neighbors. But well, ... sorry guys. I'm a business customer. I need to do business. >_>;;

I've also max'd both DL and Upload speed and surfed the internet just fine. Better than any other connection I've ever had. <3

Downside? Contract for 24 months. If they can't service my area then the contract breaks and I'm not obligated to pay them anything!

I want FiOS, more speed, less money.
