Hey there, this site is pretty old now. I've decided to leave it up as I put a lot of work into it and would hate to see it disappear.

View External Link Charter to Imposed 100GB/month Cap For 15Mbps Tier
2/6/2009

Charter to Imposed 100GB/month Cap For 15Mbps Tier A new policy which could affect many users of Charter Internet in Wisconsin which would only allow users of Charter's 15Mbps tier to download no more than 100GB a month. I used to use a program that would monitor my download per month so now I'll have to see if I exceed 100GB or not. How annoying.

    TDS, which I'm using for DSL service right now, "caps" you at 50GB/month, I think, at which point they'll allegedly ask you to clarify your bandwidth usage, and may subsequently close your account or up your price. Seems kind of bogus that they are limiting bandwidth on a 15Mbps package, which you would suspect would have a higher-than-average bandwidth cap. Also, if you get a WRT54GL (or a handful of other routers) you can use DD-WRT or Tomato firmware, which apparently have some kind of bandwidth monitor tool.



    From the TDS TOS:


    1.13 TDS Telecom residential Internet customers are restricted to 50 Gigabytes of bandwidth consumed (uploaded or downloaded) per month. If You exceed this limitation for two consecutive months, You may be required to purchase an upgraded Internet service for an additional monthly fee. See the TDS Acceptable Use Policy for additional bandwidth use restrictions.

    The program I used to track my bandwidth was called 'Netmeter'. Might be useful for you considering they really limit your bandwidth.
