    nah, no typo, i got 3 computers in my house and personally i download a lot of stuff, from shows to music, and concerts, movies and all, and my cousin plays a lot of online games which takes up a lot of bandwidth, bell only gives 60 gb of bandwidth a month and from all that stuff, we usually max is out. so im thinkin of switching to acanac...any suggestion? like has anyone tried it yet?

    that's TPG i think :p
     
  12. rogers and bell capping everyones ass @ 60 gigs for the 50 dollar plan and all other plans, if u want unlimited its $75 now. They are also throttling bt speeds to 30k @ peak times to their services and their wholesalers such as (teksavvy and acanac) the same goes for rogers and their wholesalers. The best option i can look up right now would be Teksavvy as they've got an unlimited plan. Acanac im not sure about their services but i heard teksavvy is solid.

    and yes blk i got the same friggin overage charge bill, alot of people will.

    oh yes for acanac's claim of no blocked ports is untrue right now because bell is throttling them and they are trying to fight it but big doubts they can win.

    bell and rogers are afraid of companies like this so they are playing dirty to mess up the smaller guys since they are big and have nothing to lose.

    surfing the net and download TVB dramas and anything else takes up a lot of bandwidth, this goes for both your upload and download So i can see using 3GB of bandwidth a day if you do the download of drama, music, movies, games etc downloads.

    i probably use about 3-5GB a day with the downloading and seeding that i do

    lemme give u an example....for instance..pervs like ecko dl porn everyday and they're prob big fiels.....90gb's can be easily used in 1 weeek hahahhahaa



    seriously tho if a company makes and unlimit bandwidth for a decent price every1 would go for them since bandwidth limite is a NONO to asian ppl..any1 wanna invest into my company?
