I pull down

regularly

every day

of the week

75 meg per 4 hour call from my isp, and the network is set to auto-dial.

and we're online 24/7 pretty much.

I rang them one day for something else and said "oh, by the way, I am
*thrashing the hell* out of my link, is this okay?"

"hmmm, I'll just check. Nope, you are fine"

"are you sure? Because I'm going to go bezerk if that's okay"

"if we have a problem we'll tell you"


nothing out of them for ages.

woot.
I note that Optus cable now has 550 meg per month! We pulled down 17 gig
in the first week!
How the mighty have fallen, eh?
