| I'm lucky, I'm on unmetered bandwidth. My friend has a 50GB limit - he almost never hits it, but all he does is browse forums and download the occasional game demo. My niece has a 1GB limit - yes, only 1GB! I don't think she's hit it yet - she just browses the occasional web site, IMs her friends and plays Neopets. That said, her machine got rather virus / spyware infested, and that was eating bandwidth for a while. Does your ISP limit your bandwidth? If so, whats your cap, and do you ever hit it? |

| Fortunately not, though it is fairly commonplace particularly here in the UK where bandwidth is at a premium. For around £20 a month I get an uncapped 2MBit connection - it's not the fastest or the cheapest, but I've yet to have a problem with the service and get cheap TV and Phone Line on top. I think I'd obliterate the 1GB quota within a day if I wasn't careful, never mind a month! |

| I get limited to 6gb a week which is perfect as that's not even a gb a day.. I am switching providers as I can't stand this limit. It's not the fact I download illegal stuff, it's the fact I upload a lot via ftp to my sites including flash games etc things like that which are quite a few mb each. Also that 6gb limit is my upload to.. |

| I'm at University at the moment and our student accomodation isn't ment to have a cap but ever few weeks it stops working and an engineer has to come and fiddle with the boxs. Within a minute it's working again. I suspect we do have a limit thats quite high, at first everyone was using bit torrent and such and it would stop the net working every few days. |

| I have a download limit of 10 GB and an upload limit of 2 GB. I think this is really old fashioned and I often hit the limit. The only thing I can do is buy extra volumes and they charge about 1 euro a GB |
