Btyahoo 1meg Broadband

[sega_kid]

just checked my emails to find bt yahoo have cut the costs of their broadband to 26.99 for 500k or 29.99 for 1meg!

1meg here i come!

hmm, but it also says from next year there will be a 30gig download limit, still shouldnt affect me as most movies are only about 700megs to download.

Don't you have anyone to go to the cinema with?

[dizogg]

30gig? A month?

Those fucks...

[DJ Sack]

Hmm so i can upgrade but lose my unlimited allowence? Sod that, still in 2 months time i'll be moving, wont be taking my bt account with me, will join up with someone who doesnt have any limits.

They've imposed a limit of 15GB a month (starting 'early 2005') on the 512k bb too, which for BitTorrent really works out at 250MB (allowing for uploads) a day maximum.. :/

[Haribokart]

I don't download much, playing Live won't affect the limits will it?

[Hitcher]

I don't download much, playing Live won't affect the limits will it?

Yes, but I don't know by how much.

Hmmm.I tried to upgrade to the 1meg version but the only option i can choose from is btbroadband basic.Does this mean it's not available in my area?I thought if i could get BB then i could get the 1meg version as well.

[Rushy]

Yes, but I don't know by how much.

Not by a lot fortunately, you'd have to play 24hrs a day to be worried about reaching a 30gb bandwidth limit.

But 30gb isn't enough if combine all the activities I do online. For a 1mb line the limit (which shouldnt' exist) needs to be about 50gb to entice me over. I'm happy with my unlimited 512/256 until then...

For people who are with ISP's who have bandwidth limits is there anyway to see how much you used during a month?

You are joking? 15gb a month?

Grrrr

Is there a way to test how much BB you ACTUALLY recieve?

[Paul Hanson]

ISPs can measure how much data you send and receive on your account, yes.

250mb a day on 512kb is pretty disgusting.

I'm doing about 300mb so far, and that's only since a couple of hours ago.
