Ahh that may explain it. I gather they're on the home package (god knows why since they're a business, although they had it before I started doing stuff for them). A couple of weeks ago they were moved to a 3GB package and did exceed their allowance. I'll have to look into it a bit further the next time I'm down there.On Thu, 29 Oct 2009, Rob Beard wrote:Doesn't sound too bad I guess. On a slow connection (say 2 Meg or under) I'd also suggest an Enta reseller. I couldn't recommend them for anything faster though. A customer of mine is on an 8 Meg Enta connection and they're lucky if they get 2 Megs during the day. But that could be related to the node they're on.Changing node is relatively easy - drop the ppp connection for 30 seconds (leave the ADSL connection up, if possible)However - I am surprised as I rarely see anything other than the full 8Mb on my own connection and I've just been on the phone to a customer who were complianing of slow downloads only to find that they'd exceeded their 45GB peak allowance this month )-: (Enta now throttle to 128Kb for the next GB before pulling the plug until the end of the period) This customer connects at 22Mb/sec and can max-out their line from some sites ...Gordon
