Openweb Hiding Uncapped ADSL Usage?

[cavedog]

We do not know if its true or untrue but we know taking someone's word for it will not work either. Openweb does not need to prove anything but they can't get angry cause people are speculating.....

To me it looks like account sharing which makes sense cause it will keep costs down....

Do you even know what IPC is? Your argument makes zero sense.

ALL Isps contend data. But you are saying OW shares accounts which as MrB has said over and over again is not true.

But of course you will hammer on and on just to try and get some online attention. Bleh.

Believe what? All ISPs buy capacity.

So, lets sayx you buy a 10Mb account, it means that you can use up to 10Mb of data.
2 users, means you can use 20Mb, each with their own connection.

By pooling the connections, you are limiting your exposure on how much they can use (10Mb at any point in total), thus reducing your capacity required. If you group the right users together, they won't impact each other. Which means they can probably get their own accounts and you don't need to worry about it. Pooling is just a little extra insurance to curb heavy capacity usage and increase your bottom line.

It is about economics, you just just need to think about it instead of going on a blind froth.

Why is every 2nd/4th complaint in the feedback thread about account not authenticating?

 

[ijack]

So what you are saying is you dont know whether they do but it gives you a kick to try and destroy one of the Best and most consumer focused Isps out theres name for your enjoyment?

Good one my friend. Im glad this makes you happy.

Because they share your details with Robert Mugabes family when youre not using it.

ur attempt at humor is not needed and is not funny. there are many people effected. lets hear from the big wig the reason why every other complaint is about account not authenticating.

The big wig has said over and over again post in the main thread so I doubt you will get a response here.

Your attempt at adding petrol to an unfounded fire is not appreciated.

When last did you read the AH thread? Many authentication issues. Are they also sharing details.

There is nothing that irritates me more than you attention seekers.

MrB has offered the OP a solution. Now you derailers have taken your gap.

If traffic reporting is so important to the OP I suggest he looks at the various firewall appliance solutions available - Smoothwall, pfSense, IPCop etc.

ISP numbers are meaningless without something to compare them against - hell, they could tell you that you did 800GB on a 2Mbps line just to keep you happy and up your "bragging" rights

 

[cableguy]

Hehehe!

I love bragging about my usage. Now, I know its 100% accurate because I monitor it myself.

I wouldn't exchange my openweb account or the world. You cannot beat their service. Seriously, I have been unshaped since the start of December!

Joh sorry to have upset the Openweb fanboi's but you guys take things a little too serious....

@ijack you completely lost the plot.... Hope you find your way back....

 

[ijack]

So sorry if not agreeing to your stupid accusations mean that I have lost the plot.

You think that the whole industry will suddenly turn against OW because you seek attention.

Ive got news for you. This ISP offers the best service and accounts in the country. I salute MrB and his team for the excellent service. Never let these negative nancies get in your way!!
