SuperTaz Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2012/03/01/surfing-at-billion-bits-per-second/?intcmp=features That fiber-optic cable provides on block in Sonoma County with downloads at up to one billion bits per second, or 1 Gbps. This service from Santa Rosa, Calif.-based Sonic.net will be available to the rest of Sebastopol and, later this year, the Sunset District of San Francisco. It only costs $69.95 a month. And its slower 100-million-bits-per-second service (still over six times quicker than my connection) costs a mere $39.95 a month 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are wondering whether you are at risk of exceeding this 250GB threshold, you should know that the vast majority - around 99% - of Comcast customers use significantly less than 250GB per month.

PartyPooper Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Why is your internet connection capped? Consider yourself lucky guys - all ADSL/Cable plans are capped in Australia. Once you go over your cap, you're either stung HUGE $$ for additional usage or you're speed limited down to dialup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
