AT&T Monthly Bandwidth Caps Are Here

AT&T’sbandwidth caps for its eminent speed internet customersare here . They ’re conducting a “ market tribulation ” in Reno that started on Nov. 1 , where users get between 20 sarin and 150 GB a month , depending on their speed tier . UnlikeTime Warner ’s run in Beamont , where detonator were only applied to new customers , existing client will also be cap , though they ’ll get the roomier 150 GB cap . If you tear the crownwork , AT&T will load an superfluous dollar per gigabyte . Surveying the broadband landscape in this nation , It ’s either cap orslowdownsorfilters . ( Unless you ’re on Comcast , thenit ’s a two - for - one . ) roof seem like the less of the three evil , if only because they ’re fairly gauzy — filtering and slowdowns are more insidious , since you might not be immediately aware it ’s happening . They ’re essentially legitimized configuration of sabotage . Verizon is the only major ISP result traffic totally unshackled , but I wonder how long that will last .

AT&T is conducting a market place trial in Reno , Nevada to pass judgment a usage - base model that could potentially help speak today ’s movement of explosive bandwidth usage . The trial may be extended to one other grocery store by the terminal of the twelvemonth . commence Nov. 1 , 2008 , new AT&T High Speed Internet customers in Reno will receive a bandwidth usage amount vagabond from between 20 Gigabytes ( GB ) and 150 GB , depending on their wideband hurrying grade . Later this year , survive AT&T High Speed Internet customers in Reno will become a part of this trial if their monthly usance exceeds 150 GB in one calendar month . These customers will incur a usage amount of 150 GB per month . Once they ’re a part of the run , customer will obtain a one month saving grace period the first time usage is exceeded . Thereafter , client will be charged $ 1 for every GB over their determined use amount . All customers in the trial will receive a bandwidth measurement prick so they can track their usage . We will let all impacted customers know about the trial specifics at least 60 - days ahead of any overage charge . We ’ll also proactively let customers know each meter they reach 80 pct of their use amount . We will not terminate service due to customer custom . We have previously stated that some eccentric of usage based manakin , for those customer who have abnormally in high spirits usage patterns , seems inevitable . A small group of customers are using the majority of bandwidth on our web . In fact , almost 50 percent of total bandwidth is used by just five per centum of customer – customers , for example , who are uploading and download the equivalent of more than 40,000 YouTube videos or 40 million e - mails a month . This kind of intemperate usage has an impact on all of our customers . This trial will help oneself us appraise way of dealing with surging usage course while continuing to match customer needs for a gamey quality broadband experience at an low-priced price .
