howzit guys,

for the first time in 6 months i find myself a the verge of exceeding my local cap.

my question is, how strict are internet solutions when it comes to hardcapping. i can't afford to be capped this month, so... should i kill the downloads, or will i make month end if i continue?

Though you didnt mention how close you are I'd suggest investing in another account if connectivity is that critical.

im sitting on 28.434 gigs.........from my experience they are hardcapping if you go over the 30gigs.......they check your usage by resetting your connection every 24hrs, so when you know you almost finished your cap, reset your router on your own and youll have 24hrs more until youre capped!

and @ 100kbps you can use : 8.64 gigs more!
and @ 400kbps :eek: you can use 34.56 gigs more!!!:D
