Uk's First 3mb Service

[Cyonic]

I don't think Telewest caps any of their services

[junkyardking]

You can get 10mb cable in Australia either from optus(strict capping after qouta to 28k yes slower than dial up) or you can go with Telstra Unlimited* for $AU59 of which you may be capped(64k) after a 10gb qouta but usally people can download between 10 - 100gb before there capped...


Both Optus and Telstra stopped rolling HFC cable years ago because it was losing money, Telstra is currently trialling fibre to the curb but who knows how long if ever this will be rolled out in oz..

I expect it&#39;s more of a guidline for NTL something that they can use against you if they feel that you are "abusing" your connection.

I&#39;m surprised they haven&#39;t written to you about it, if you go over so often.
I&#39;m on the 150k, and so I would rarely go over 1gb anyway (not that I really want so many files as that).
Maybe when they put the speed up later this summer though, it will be a lot easier for people to go over 1gb a day, I wonder what NTL will do then.
