Plusnet Broadband PAYG (with inc. 2GB bandwidth)

Thinking of migrating away from Plusnet to Newnet. Does anyone know if the
Plusnet 2GB bandwidth limit includes uploads as well as downloads? Thanks.

Reason I ask is that the Newnet basic (Homelite) package also has a 2GB
included bandwidth limit which includes both down and uploads. I just want
to ensure I'm comparing like for like before I take the plunge.

Of course.

I was wondering for a minute there, yes Plusnet do count all traffic
on your service, up, down & even blocked......

Yes, PN does count them. Shame they don't give a breakdown of it (as a
few routers can do this for end users... one of my routers shows totals
for the WAN link, and on a per-IP address basis, inbound and outbound,
so one could see whose PC has been heaviest on the internet link!)

LOL. Some may think that is the 'default', and wrongly assume that it is
the case with all ISPs, of course, which is not the case. I had (wrongly)
assumed it was an isolatedf ISP (OK, it is still rather small a number) but
Zen and AAISP are two that count only downloads... So great choices
for someone wanting to "broadcast" (uploading webcam images, and/or
audio streams)
