yeah that doesn't help, you could always hack the router to limit his speed :D |

| hehe now theres a move.. giving someone the ability to download 2.5 gigs an hour and then restricting them to a 20 gig cap for a whole month.. |

| I've been with TekSavvy for more than 2 years. 200G a month, download rate is between 300-400 kbps although it should be more, I think the mex speed is 800 kbps but a bell technicnan once came to my place and said that our building has old lines or something..The thing I like also about them is that there is no contracts and their support guys are awesome, they really know their stuff!!!...I highly recommend them. |

If you have parents / friends on sympatico, you could have them take your address once it clears and then set it up to auto forward (or just log into it).

It's true about them knowing their stuff. You can call them up and ask them a tech question and they'll know the answer right away (one that would take Bell's call center in India over an hour).
Like I said, there are very few companies that run off Bell's lines with the knowledge to support stuff like MLPPP... Although with the new uTorrent beta, the UDP transport layer does the job itself... for now :toothless |

| just don't use torrents and p2p. |

P2P has its place.
I buy my music but download my foreign TV/film, don't worry ;)
When Inbeat is part of your walk home every day... it's easier to go broke. |
