local and international

[1derboy]

hey guys i bought a Openweb (IS)1gb + 10gb local account and i use this mainly for gaming on local servers. Does this account automatically use the local account for local gaming or does it first use up the international bandwidth and then local. Do i need route sentry or is there another way? also how is Openweb's SAIX 5gb accounts is see they going for R239?

Unfortunately, this is where the false advertising kicks in, because you have to use up your 1gig international to get to your local cap. So, if you used 1gig for local gaming, you would lose any international cap.

Route sentry would be your best option for splitting the bandwidth, however, you would need 1 account for international and another for local.

Not sure on OW's SAIX accounts, presume they are as good as the SAIX's network is currently?
