    Yeah I guess that's another factor, we don't know if Tarrant's old 20mbps was solid and consistent. Providers around here advertise 10mbps but it is actually 3mbps sustained, with a 20second bucket burst to 10mbps. Fucking bullshit that providers can advertise like that, no matter what the...

    I just find it interesting EDIT: and yes, 20Mbps will chug if you have utorrent uploading the shit out of your connection in the background

    Why not 20? Do you know how much shit you can have going on 20Mbps? 6+ simultaneous HD streams 2MBps downloads About 100 sessions of World of Warcraft open EDIT: I think that the average consumer doesn't understand what is even possible on a given internet connection, and that is what...

    So would you trade services, and pay the same monthly amount, for 20Mbps w/o a cap?

    I personally stream all of my TV as well. My wife and I watch a good 3-4 hours a night. Online games use basically nothing (<200Kbps), other than updates Does your wife stay at home? For those movies that you stream, what service do you use? If you are doing like 3D movies or something...

    It is nice to be able to ask heavy users these things, so as established I am against caps. That said, what is it that you do that consumes 300gb in a week? Is it large files or just streaming lots? On Netflix's MEDIUM quality setting, you could have streamed about 400 hours of TV for...

    What is the price for the 300gb? Unless it's like $20-30 that is really shitty.

    What do you do?

    Got an interview tomorrow at a casino for IT Manager. I already have a really good job as IT Director for a local hospital, but the call schedule is fucking stupid, and the benefits aren't great. I haven't prepped at all, so hopefully it wont be a complete disaster. EDIT: I should note...

    I think the forum getting shut down was similar to when teachers used to say "one more time and this is going in your PERMANENT RECORD!". Its not really a thing, but they do it in hopes of scaring you into not being a little asshole.

    It would likely result in a poorer connection over all as all of your traffic would be likely flagged below games, voip, probably streaming etc. And then you would be left with whatever the tunnels performance. QoS does not decrease throughput on any traffic. It simply reorders traffic for...

    "-Still stealing from your customers as well" - some idiot Here is a good example of a customer not understanding what the fuck they are talking about. QoS is prioritization, and has nothing to do with what Comcast was doing in 2007 (shaping, aka rate limiting, certain types of traffic to...
