- 10 day rolling period? -

[CruizD]

Can someone explain to me how this works.

From Axxess:
10 day Rolling Window - If you're in Top 20% of IS users for the 384kbs, 512kbs and 1024kbs connection speeds, you will be shaped
User Policy applies 24/7, Weekends & Public Holidays
For the 4096kbps Accounts, if you're in Top 50% of IS users for this connection speed, you will be shaped

Exactly what does this mean? and how does it work?

After 10 days If I am in the top 50% of bandwidth users my net accessibility gets downgraded? and so forth for the month? Or it does not reset?

All info wanted please!

Axxess runs on IS/SEACOM.

The way I read that your net use will be evaluated. If you're one of the top users you will be limited for the next 10 days. I doubt it will be reset at monthend as they only mention a 10 day cycle

Yes. It's a star system. 5 stars is no shaping and then
progresses downwards.

Also it doesn't zero at month end.

where would one find out your 'star' status?

Yes. It's a star system. 5 stars is no shaping and then
progresses downwards.

So you cant progress upwards?

I'm no expert, but it should clear after you are no longer in the 20%.
They say you can see it on http://users.isdsl.net/ but I could only see usage.

Maybe next month?!

only now it really strikes me, but half of the 4mb users will always be shaped. that's harsh
