My ISP's customer service Lately Limeware hasn't been connecting so I upgraded to Pro.....still wouldn't hook up. I came to this forum and read about ISP's blocking Limewire.....well mine was on the list. So I called them on it. I told him my story and he gave me the firewall routine. I told him I read of the bandwith blockers in some blogs. He puts me on hold....lol.....comes back on and gave me a bit about my wireless router not being fast and I should use a hard line.....then he goes "look if I'm downloading I used the hard line....it's faster"....I've only ever used wireless on this computer. Then he says..." unless you're exceeded your bandwith of which they allow 60gig/month.....some people abuse it and use 200gig/month and they slap a "monitor" on them and so on"...." but as long as you're under 60gig/month there should be no problem."
Then, out of the blue.....my connection goes, turbo charged / excellent connection and everything is working awesome. I used to download maybe 5-10 songs a month and maybe 20....10 minutes videos....this wouldn't be exceeding 60gig would it ? |
