[QUOTE=Del91;43757553]I have 4 other roommates. Someones usually on a laptop, everyone's using wifi with their phones, along with two xboxes, and my desktop. I am well above comcasts claimed "average usage" of 17gb a month, but still barely half the supposed 300gb limit...I want to see where they get that average number from.[/QUOTE]
I'm guessing you live Near or around Huntsville or Madison, Mediacom has a 50 m/bits down and 2 up and a 500Gb Cap for a good price.

I haven't had an issue with a cap yet so I'm not worried about it.
What's a cap?
It's like a hat

Bottle caps.
Dippoly dacks.

A huge pain in the ass that limits people's life every month.
You can get 500mbits if you live in the Bern area from upc-cablecom
it's not cheap though like 200fr./month

as for data caps we've never had any here in switzerland nor did the isp not deliver the mentioned speeds
[QUOTE=latin_geek;43753964]I'm really starting to wonder if everyone at Youtube UI Design HQ lived their entire lives with their monitors in portrait orientation or something[/QUOTE]
I can't speak for every company, but when I was doing web dev with a company for 6 weeks, everybody had a editor on their 27" Thunderbolt display most of the time and had a portrait display by the side of it, which they kept Chrome/Firefox on.
Oh and on the topic of broadband caps:-
We're with Sky at the moment on their Unlimited Plan, which advertises up to 16Mb (We get 15Mb) and there is no data cap - for £10 a month (+£15 line rental, comes to a total of £25/~$41pm).
We're thinking of swapping to BT soon though, but they have data caps and high prices (£15 pm + £15 line rental pm for 38Mb with 40GB data cap) when we could get 38Mb fibre for double what we're paying now, still with no data cap.

I used to be in that same situation a few months ago. It was between PlusNet, BT or Sky Fibre, after researching all 3 I found that PlusNet has 'traffic management', aka throttling your connection during peak times, which threw me off them, BT was just more expensive and provided a slower upload speed. The only issue with Sky was that they were going to charge £50 for installation and a new fiber router although once we called them up to cancel they offered us the fiber package with free installation/router. Imo Sky is the better out of Sky/BT.

Sky is by far the best for fibre, my friend is on BT fibre but has throttled p2p on peak times.
I pay the same but get 40/10, he gets double both. Its an extra £10 on sky to get 80/20.
I haven't had any speed problems so far, definitely no caps (I use 1TB traffic per month)
[editline]2nd February 2014[/editline]
Although BT supposedly released a 'Totally Unlimited package' that has no p2p throttling
I don't think I could live with Data caps in America. I eat bandwidth for breakfast.
American/Texan here with comcast, what is a data cap?
If this is it, I can confirm, I have a data cap

That's a bit excessive.
Wouldn't an instaban that looks for the thread title "I am the new girl" and "Just wanted to say Hi" work?
That's all the spam threads seem to be named.

Plugged my external hdd into my USB 3.0 port to copy over some TV shows, the second I did it, my laptop hard reset. Loaded it back up and plugged it back into the USB 3.0 port, did it again, had to use the 2.0 port and resort to only copying at 20mb/s.
Any debris or something in the USB3 port? iirc computers do that when you short some pins.
