Capped (huge cap) or uncapped ADSL

[Mr.CookieMonster]

Hey Guys,

I would like to know would it be better to get:

1. Capped Internet (a huge cap like 50GB per month, unshapped)
2. Uncapped Internet.

Please let me know what you think.

Thank you!

Do you have a budget? Or is price not a factor?

 

[Srack0verflow]

knowing what you'll be using it for would also help

50gb != huge

Still not clear what "unshapped" means either.. is it a cross between uncapped and unshaped?

Whats your line 384k/4MB?

My answer to you is dependent on your line speed.

Well, if your line speed is 4+MB then 50GB is far from a huge cap.

However, If you're on a 384K line then 50GB would be more than adequate.

So basically (According to Line Speeds) this is my opinion:
384K: 50GB Capped
1MB: 50GB Capped or Uncapped
4-10MB: Uncapped

Take note that there are many different uncapped offerings,
so you're going to need to shop around to find the best
uncapped for your needs and your pocket.

From what I've read (In terms of uncapped) the favourite
providers are MWeb, Openweb and Telkom. My choice
would definitely be the Openweb Uncapped Gold account.

100 GB @ R 9.50 - Unshaped and capped - not WA or OpenWeb "Gold" or any of that crap or Arihost's so called IS unshaped, (yeah right since when has IS ever sold unshaped / unthrottled bandwidth)
