Hey Guys,

I am currently with ZEN internet on their top package, however this only gives me 100GB a month.

Now i am finding it increasingly hard to monitor this usage and last 2months have hit this and then exceeded it by paying for extra.

This is due to watching a lot of HD content (Love Film etc), gaming, Xbox Game Downloads, newsgroups (My buisness organisation use this for uploading large 3d CAD files, which i download/upload regularly for work etc) which uses about 20GB's a month.

Now i am looking around for different ISP's such as SKY or O2 however these looking like true UNLIMITED packages, but are they? really?

Also some mention traffic shaping, would this effect my use of newsgroups for work downloads?

What would be the best in peoples opinions for getting a true unlimited with the least restrictions on Traffic shaping?

Many Thanks.
 
Thank Tealc for that. How can you tell if you are being offered LLU?

When i check on their site, i am offered :

1. Broadband Everyday Lite - great for daily browsing and online shopping
2. Broadband Unlimited - perfect for downloading music and movies

Speeds of 2.6-7mbps.

Many thanks.
 
On Samknows it states Sky/Easynet is enabled. So do i have to ask to be on their LLU scheme when i order BB from them?

Or will it just put my on their true on UNLIMITED service?

Have you had experience of their traffic shaping on torrents and newsgroups?

Thanks
 
Oh thanks for that, well seems SKY looks the way to go.

Only last thing, do you need to use their supplied router? or can i still use my NETGEAR?
