The only bits that confused me rally is that I would rather have a Hard cap between a certain time and then lifted - lets say 4pm to 11pm for example rather then hit the cap just after 9pm and be throttled all the way to 2am.
Yup I know exactly what you mean!!! It can be a pain in the rear end!

I always leave my downloading going through the night, get full potential and they can't throttle you that way - to a certain extent..

Maybe you could just stop downloads between the peek times?!
