I've been throttled
 

I exceeded my Optus download capacity.
Haven't tried an online game yet, but even browsing is painful again.
This . . 28kbps . . is . . so . . slow.
Please . . bring . . . on . . . next . . . month . . . soon.

thats gotta hurt

not as much as 16c per excess MB!

true

its more hurtful when you realise you have 700mb left at 11pm before your cap resets and then cant find the download you want (rise of nations) until 12!

Yeah it's quite strange... I keep thinking I shouldn't browse so much because my usage is gonna go over bad - but then you look at the connection and realise your not with Telstra anymore and see on the current connection you've downloaded over 6gb in a few days and remember you've got unlimited broadband now - takes a bit of getting used after being with Telstra for so long..... ahhhhh freedom again... damn it's good :)

6gb in "browsing" eh shady..... yer right rotfl

so r u on ADSL now? which ISP? what u think of it so far?

lol Rem :)

Yeah ADSL - for a few months with Bigpond I kept going over the limit (not much, like 50-100mb) but that's still like and extra $5-$10 or so.. and was paying more than this unlimited ADSL and getting less for it. And considering the pings are only slightly higher (by like 10-20ms only) and the downloads are always very fast and it truly is unlimited for pretty much the same price as telstra I decided to change.

It's been the best.. no more worrying in the back of my head about reaching a limit.

ISP: Lithoptix (adsl.lithoptix.com)

hmmmm sounds great! real unlimited and with decent speeds would be great! I luv my cable tho :D

good to hear that ADSL is going well tho :D
