It's illegal to have another provider in the area this is the only one pretty much they own the cable and internet space here

I used to have a cap at 200 gb, after that it would be $1.25 a gigabyte till 50 gigs. Then after that it would be free. Your situation sucks man. :(

My build: i5 3570k , Sabertooth Z77, Be quiet Dark Rock 2, Corsair vengeance 16 gb ram, Corsair RM 750, WD Black 1TB , ADATA 256 GB SSD, Asus 660ti DCUII, NZXT H440, Noctua NF-F12 & NF-A14.

 

I would love to change the world, but they won't give me the source code.

i have a 100gb cap, the internets so slow here (in aus) that its near impossible to hit it becasause you can't load vids over 1080p and downloading big shit takes all night, and I have off peak data then.

Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.

As I get older I get angrier more cynical, meaner. I feel some warning posts coming. I feel a ban coming. I was warned.

Serious Question is there a single ethernet cable spanning the ocean to aussie land from Korea providing the country with internet?

But...why? Unless you're downloading hundreds of movies.

It's rather useless to have that many games installed, you wouldn't be able to play them all.

I really don't know I don't really watch TV and I usually have something off of YouTube playing or something while I'm gaming . And I like to try linux distro so I'll get the 64bit and the 32bit versions and try them out on a few machines around the house :( I don't know what to do I'm scared

One huge problem with those things is that they are never accurate. I'm currently at 625GB. Last month I was at 859GB and I know I don't use that much bandwidth.

But it's about the same as my router is reporting :0 within a couple gigs
