Well I'm on a 4mb line with 5gb cap. I'm a power user I guess and I generally always use up my cap within 10-15 days of the month. I then buy about 1-3gbs more after that.

I do a lot of online gaming, streaming and downloading but low caps limits us(duh :/ ). So now I've seen Openweb's VPN product and was wondering, is it worth dropping my 4mb line for?

I pay about R750 for my 4mb line, 5gb cap and line in all. The VPN one is about that excluding line, which I guess I don't mind paying for. I was also looking at OpenBrowse? If I'm not mistaken, which lets you browse etc on your Local? But then I thought, with that amount of money I might as well go with ImagineISP, 384kbps uncapped with no thresholds.

I've used a 384kbps line before, 512kbps too(but it was with a friend of mine on wireless, on a private 'net business) I hated it. So I've never used cable version of 512, so I don't really know what its speeds are.

Is OpenVPN what it's made out to be? Or should I go 384 uncapped(I'm very impatient :rolleyes: )

Any advice on which to chose? Thanks all.
