move from Mweb completely, any other ISP besides Openweb will do.

Afrihost, Vox or Crystal Web are recommended at the moment.

Which uncapped account are you on? Perhaps rather upgrade if you need more GBs?
 
Don't listen to them ^^ - Change ISPs

Mweb is cancer, You shouldn't have to worry about a "cap" on a uncapped product, and their capped accounts are meh at best.

4mbps standard.

Then your threshold is 110GB. If you upgrade to 6Mbps Standard @ R359 you'll get 150GB. Or 400GB with 4Mbps Premium @ R539.

You might also want to consider the 400GB (200 + 200GB) capped @ R399, PM MWEBHelp to see if they'll change you over.

Well then go with Afrihost, Vox or Crystal Web - and get better performance on capped as well as free midnight to 6am data on all of them.

Now, Does Mweb offer you Unlimited midnight to 6am data on capped?

I suggest following my and Chevron's advice. And to not take the implication that good internet means high usage too seriously.

In my books, good internet means internet that always works and never has any downtime.

There are other good ISPs out there using different backbones who do offer trial accounts if you are still unsure. Just make sure the test accounts match the account profile you can afford/would be interested in.

Well with one of the above mentioned ISPs, You could buy a smaller cap, schedule your downloads between midnight and 6am and you get to save money!
