speaking as a by customer-
i dunno wat a cap is, but they have a replacement.

When they want to, they give you a ****e service, ie giving you only 20-30% of the advertised speed. I pay for 1mb and find myself downloading at 50kbps sometimes.
Every time i reboot my modem is a lottery of what speed I will get.
People say it is the "side effects" of the upgrades that are coming to my area end of sep, but until i actually get the upgrade I cant accept that. If this upgrade doesn't come by friday (30sep) then i shall be angry. (im in mortlake area)
Id rather just have full 1mb speed and pay less rather than have a jaulty "pre upgrade speed" that ive been having since the first of september.
