How is this package?
I am mainly home after 6PM and on weekends--so this package seems to fit my bill, Also what I could like to know is the after hours part--is it reliable? I do some P2P torrents (mainly for Linux downloads) will this give me a good user experience or will I be shaped to death?
 
these isp's and there use of the term uncapped is pathetic.
 
My brother got one, and says it is running full speed after hours. But he will probably kill me for saying this, as now everyone will jump on it.

What I find pathetic is that people don't know when to use there and their appropriately in the context of a sentence. I would forgive you if you're Afrikaans, but hell, being Afrikaans myself, I don't make that type of mistake. But alas.. being a spelling/grammar nazi only brings one that far I suppose, but I do find it irritating when people make that type of mistake. :rolleyes:
 
LOL @ Stonecold, i understand you totally my friend :)

So whose going to be a guinea pig and test for us this account :D
 
I have also been trying to compare SAINET and Openweb. The idea is not to get 600GB+ per month, but more like 100-200GB. I know that SAINET has the 100GB AUP, whereas Openweb does not clearly state their (hope I got this right, StoneCold?) limit. However I am more concerned with being shaped to death. I need a fairly consistent download speed if and when required. Not like MWEB where you don't know what speed you'll get until you start downloading something. Hence I got rid of that one. So some feedback would be nice guys.

Sainet and Openweb use the same provider Neology. So if Sainet has a 100GB AUP then I'm sure that Openweb would be no different.

I have done close to or over, still going strong :). I think Openweb have their own T&C and there is no mention of any thresholds, thus far :)

I would also like to know if there are any threshold/limit on Openweb, especially the gold since there are no mention of it?

Your been to critical. There spelling is not vital to they're message. Their are mush more important things in live to worry about. So wise up, dude. What have you got too loose?
 
@MR BEEPS:

If you are reading this, could you offer some input on this package? I am planning to go with this option as soon as I get my ADSL line activated.
 
Goodmorning Friends,

This product will run up to 4Mbps. I'm afraid it will not go up to 10Mbps.

I trust this will assist.

Have a great morning,
MrBEEP
