OK, firstly, why is it called a CAP?
My 'CAP' is 1M down 256k up because I am 'CAPPED' at the 'GOLD' level.
I am aware of a "Download Limit" of 1Gig per day, but choose to ignore it.
My reason for ignoring it is as follows.....
A few years ago I got a 600K CM and was told by ntl that I must not host FTP or HTTP servers. I hosted both but restricted access to usernames and passwords. NTL were fine about this (spoke to LOADS of tech support peeps about it) as they could not see any major impact on the connecton I used, or any other customers on my UBR.
They said the "no server" policy was there just so they could quickly shut someone down if they started up an "adult" site, or a site with too much traffic.
IMO, the 1Gig limit is there for similar reasons. I have frequently gone over 1G and NEVER got contacted. I imagin if I start downloading at 120k 24/7 they wll be phoning me, but as I dont, they wont.
