mmk92 wroteYou guys don't have to download every show/movie online just because you can. I am a HEAVY internet user(LOTS of Youtube/Steaming at 480p), gaming(including regular game updates), I download files whenever I need to and I have used up 16% of my 55GB monthly qouta. I don't get all your obsessions with free night qouta.

This is wrong on so many levels. I download only what my connection allows me to download with my puny 1mbps and even then it's not enough most of the times. I just purchased a few games during the steam sale but i can't play any cause i CAN'T download them. As for series, I download only what my time allows me to watch but with those speeds/FUPs and quotas, I can't.

Above that, what game doesn't have a patch once every 1-2week? I spend most of my 3hour game sessions with friends worrying quota/FUP and speed because we have to waste at least 1 hour patching our games and hoping there's no follow up. So we like to watch series during then or maybe youtube[oh wait, no youtube - WE'RE PATCHING -.-]

just because I use my connection mostly for entertainment doesn't mean I shouldn't because someone else is using it for work. We should all be able to use our connection for whatever the F*** we want because we are paying for it (period)
Guys! I am following this thread lately and am very confused!

I have a cable connection for 512kbps unlimited for 25$/month!
I want to upgrade to faster speeds to be able to watch live youtube as well as downloading ROMs and games/vmovies, etc...

So currently what is the best plan you can recommend for me?
I prefer unlimited plan without FUP (if available) or limited with free night traffic (also without FUP during these hours).

Any help would be great!
Thx!

Hey, man long time !

You still have Cable "el 7ay"!?!?!?!?

That aside, seems that only "Limited" plans don't suffer any FUP. So that's why I will be refilling with 2mbps @50gb plan. You will be able to use up to 1.666666gb/day that quite a few 480p/360p YouTube videos. As for downloads, should be done from 11pm to 7am as usual with FNQ (Free night Quota or no limits).

There is no such thing as Unlimited with no FUP sadly. Also FUP is a nightmare here throttling speed from 2mbps to 64kbps for me. My line currently can't support any faster than 2mbps due to my location being ~4km away from CO or "Centrale" as we like to call it.

So your best bet would be whatever max your line handles but make sure it's a LIMITED plan else you will have to suffer the worst FUP known to mankind x)

Hope that helps !

Good to hear from you in such a long time ;)
Go for ogero 2mb unlimited plan for 50$ i don't think they will have fup

They made sure switching ISPs is as hard as possible. To switch you need "Bara2it Zemmeh" dunno what it's called in English sorry. And a wait before they release your line. No thanks.

Only time will tell. Am just glad I can switch between 2mbps plans back n forth. I might go back to unlimited one once all settles down. Who knows. But for now limited to run as far away from FUP as possible.
"Kindly note that your plan now is 4M-50GB, so no FUP will be applied on your account, FUP is only applicable on unlimited plans for the time being. Should you need more information, please do not hesitate to contact us on 1282 ext 1."

E-mail from IDM.. notice "for the time being"..

Thanks for your time man. They never told me "for the time being" that's new. Hope it's true.
I download at full speed on download accelerator but i download on firefox and chrome at one-fourth the speed. Is someone experiencing this??
andrew55 wroteI download at full speed on download accelerator but i download on firefox and chrome at one-fourth the speed. Is someone experiencing this??
Yes. Who uses browser download anyway? It's not good that's why download accelerator exists and Internet Download Manager.

Never use browser to download you will not get good speeds as you just said.
Yes but i've always used it and everything was fine. I was getting full bandwidth download on both browsers. Something changed in the past 2 days or so (at least with regards to my connection. As usual IDM has no clue.).

Am sorry to say you are right, but ditch browser download. As I said it has always been unreliable for me since 2001 to this day. So use IDM or any accelerator. Pause/Resume, scheduler etc...

Only use it for small downloads like 2mb n such.
Not like I can do anything else.. oh well..
There's a reason behind calling it download accelerator : D
What a shitty shitty country ...

Thanks for shedding light on my point. But all we can do now is stop complaining and wait till after August 1st. Then complain if it remains like this.

On Ogero, I am still getting full 2mbps with no download manager. But obviously either IDM's QOS deteriorated drastically, or they are doing some sort of per connection (TCP/UDP) throttling that gets mitigated by splitting a download.
In this day and age, 99% of reputable download servers allow well over 4mbps per connection.
and to prove your point i connected my modem to the computer and even changed modems.. i knew it was an issue from their side. Download is now back to normal on firefox! weird...
Trent, I hope by going limited in a week or will solve my issue. Waiting patiently for next week to come to see.

If all goes as they say no FUP on limited plans I will stick with it. But it's not like I can't go back to unlimited once they fix their shit.
