Ah so my point is proven. It's unfair to say that you can't use Netflix. It's your overall usage levels that have created the issue. Even though the service is marketed as "unlimited" the reality is that VM do apply use criteria. It seems that so far people like ASA, OFCOM don't have a problem with the dictionary and public consumer definition of unlimited actually meaning some restrictions. It's just a pain that, apart from the STM thresholds we don't know what the heavy use criteria will be.

Is the minecraft server home hosted? If so, especially if it's reasonably popular, that is likely to be the real issue. At the end of the day home connections were never intended to support busy servers.
