"I thought my PIPEX broadband was unlimited?
Currently, that remains the case. PIPEX is not imposing
a usage limit on how much data you can transfer or when
you can use your connection. We are simply looking to address
the challenges of managing a shared service in the interest of
the majority of users, during peak periods. This may require
traffic managing certain customers during particular periods
in order to allow our network to be used fairly."
Liars!
No matter how you look at it, its capping.
There is no shortage of bandwidth with 95% of fibers dark.
It costs nothing to add a few gigabits.
But penny pinching assholes have decided to become
screaming bitches drawing great circles in the air and
laughing all the way to the bank with your money
while third world countries start
installing 2Mbit links for 1.20 pounds and other
countries aim for 100mbit SDSL!!
