« on: July 06, 2008, 06:54:01 PM »
I downloaded 15 gb's of the wonder years over the weekend and now i'm trying to download some other stuff and it's going less than 1 kb/s.  my internet browsing is also going slow as balls.  youtube videos take forever to load

In anywhere but the us, 15gbs in a day is probably nothing.

No, 15 gb's of the wonder years.  Wonder years.  15 gb worth. 

I think the download gods are just trying to help him.

Neither in Belgium, 15gb is half of my monthly cap and I pay 60euros. Stupid fucking Belgium.

I've never had problems with Comcast.  I think any problem in the past may be more closely linked with my bad router luck that Frag made go away.  I think if Comcast started throttling shit in this area, they'd lose the extremely large nerd demographic around here.
