    Then you’re shitty American ISP throttle you for too many downloads. Fuck I hate Comcast, and no they are not fooling anyone changing their name to Xfinity.

      I’m so sorry for you Americans that seems to have the worst ISPs in the west :-/

      I don’t even really care about the bandwidth, I have a fix IP & IPv6 + routing in the “ISP box” for ~33€/month.

      Maybe a useful tip: check to see if the plans that include their modem rental have unlimited bandwidth.

      I’m 99% sure that’s what I’m coasting on, because I don’t pay the extra $$$ for going over any longer.

      Edit: trust me when I say I frequently go over. If there’s a decent image host I’ll take a screenshot of last month’s usage.

        The xfi gateway ($20/month) gives you unlimited / no caps, but you have to have their gateway. Otherwise it’s $30/month for unlimited without their gateway. The gateway can have the bridge mode turned on quite easily through the Xfinity website.

          Yeah, pretty sure that’s what I did.

          I have Ubiquiti UniFi throughout the house, so I’m not using their garbage.

        I’ll have to try to remember to check that. There is a chance I’m going on old info.
