The aol service runs through 'tunnels' over ntls service. It uses similar modems but is subject to completly different usage as dictated by aol. There must be someone more knowledgable on here that will tell you about it.

One point is whilst there are many isp that advertise mo caps and unlimited service there are no isps that will tollerate abuse of a connection by very heavy p2p users. Its not what any of them will have designed their service for.
