I was thinking they might have meant gigs but wasn't sure. I should be fine. I'll just have to keep an eye on what I downloading for awhile until I am taken off the watch list. Does the bandwidth limit include the upstream or just the down stream?

includes download and upload. Google bandwith tracking programs so you can keep track of your bandwith usage from month to month it will save your ass

Will do thanks for the info.. Guess I'll have to watch what I am doing this month since I already did a bunch the first couple days this month. Just have to under shoot it for the month.

Rofl... You can easily bypass that amount legitimately.

I think skype rings up about 2-3GB every 3-5 hours. Demos range from 500-2.5GB on PS3, I think same on xbox360.

Skype should only use about 3/4kB/s. 6 at most if you're only doing voice calls.

Weird... though I haven't used skype to that degree in a long time. Maybe they optimized it. But at the same time, we also used to host video conferences a lot too.

How the fuck do they come up with these numbers? I usually download more than that in a single download. I upload more than that in upstream too so where the hell are they coming up with this number. They are threatening turning off my connection for a year. There really isn't any other decent isp out here. Any ideas what I can do to get around this? I don't wanna stop downloading anime or seeding what I get. Any ideas?

Go business, pay 10-20 dollars extra and well .. the downside is having a contract for 2 years (possibly).
