(sorry if i get the capitalisation wrong on the following measurements im sure you can understand it)
Look 1gb a day is 1024000 kbytes which is 1024mbytes which is 1gb
24hrs in a day x 60 minutes an hour x 60seconds a minute... = 86400 secs/day
1024000 divided by 86400 = 11.8kb/s
So to use our 1gb cap a day we might as well have a 150k connection and if we were to use this 150k 24/7 we'd still go over our 1gb a day limit.
LOL find this ironic? you still want to believe the crap NTL feed you. There broadband speed is a gimik to introduce new customers there cap is an insult to exsisting customers. The last letter i had from NTL was to tell me i was abusing the 56k service and that i should upgrade to the new broadband service that will be introduced soon...
Anyway as stated before if my network was congested the speed would be evenly spread... heres some more maths for you
If my street has a limit of 10mb for the whole street and there are 20 2mb users. If all 20 users were downloading at a max speed at one time we'd all suffer the same congestion limit of 0.5mb (512k) there would be no one downloading faster than anyone else. Yet again your arguement is flawed.
Thanks for your response anyway...
