I know it is a bit early but some people have already done in excess of 30 gigs so i thought i'd start it early. :)
I managed 40 gigs last month.
ATM i am being a real abuser. Done a whole 2gigs :(
Anyone been capped yet??

That is for sure! I know i am struggling on my 192k line. Just thought that some peeps wouldve blown their cap on 1mbit lines already.
I spose it doesnt really matter to me though , as you said highflyer, i am going to have to really push it to even get to my cap :(:(

I was capped on the 3rd on a 2Gb.
Are you guys who are getting capped now on 3Gb accounts?
We're talking hard-capped, no more local access.
Sorry, thought this was the Telkom Internet capped thread. :o

Please bring me up to speed here please. Are u guys on IS ADSL 3Gig accounts and you're allowed to exceed your limit every month? Where do I sign up? And when you say it's no local access what does that mean?
Thanks

Dude, You get 2GB / 3GB of 'anywhere' bandwidth. Once you have reached that limit, you are 'softcapped' which means that you can't access any international websites. at all.
You can however still access local SA content... Until you reach the second limit of 30GB. Then you are hard capped, and you can't even authenticate anymore. That is what we are talking about.
Capped on 2nd account ... 43731.29 MB

yeah it is really silly. I vote whoever started the thread should be allowed to make a poll as well and if the mods dont like it then they can always change it/delete it!
ISH, I am at 15gig and my local downloads are running at 2-6kb/sec on a dsl384? damn dialup is faster, is there anyone getting this also? I am getting it at nights even, not just during work hrs.

This is due to the current IS problems. There are probs with IS- SAIX peering links and telkom seem to have their own problems as always!
Add to that the fact that line speeds have been 'adjusted' by telkom. 192k users getting 15-18k instead of the 25-35k they were getting b4. That is all telkom's fault though. Nothing to do with IS.

I got hard capped just over 30Gig.

I'm gonna use it up till 29.9GB, and then rape it on the last day for 24 hours non-stop :cool: Preparing my batch of NZB's in the mean time :D

While I appreciate the sentiment ( :D ) it is pointless. IS seem to allow one to go as high as 35GB before capping anyway - and I doubt you could exceed 6 GB on the last day.

I can do 6GB in a day! 3GB up and 3GB down... Easy as pie.
at 55KB/s --> 4640.63MB/24 hours - in one direction...
averaging out up and down, total bandwidth = 80KB/s --> 6750.00 MB/24hours
at 90KB/s --> 7593.75MB/24 hours
See... 6GB is quite simple.

No doubt, but you have not factored in the end-of-month slowdown...
