So many of us by now should know with Comcast we have a 250GB a monthly bandwidth allotment, and if you love computers like me should be coming close to or maxing out your allotment monthly.
- 2 Bed, 1 bath duplex – running home base business (http://www.invinciblehost.com)
- Video Chats (Facetime to Vietnam, Skype) – 2 Times a day
- 3 iPhone’s
- 3 Laptops
- 1 xbox 360
- 1 Roku XD
- 1 Desktop
- 1 Netflix Account
Today age we technology is part of our life. We use it everyday! Literally everything is on the computer. A few years back I can see we barely use 250GB limit due to the fact we store everything on our own computers. We only check mails, pictures, and some YouTube. Now that there’s service such as Cubby, Dropbox, Google Drive, SkyDrive, and many other cloud services out there it really burns up all your bandwidth easily. For instance my Dropbox acount total of 78GIG right now that my computer sync everyday. I find that its unfair for Comcast limits. I received serveral warnings from Comcast to cut back on my usage else they’ll cut me off. I watch YouTube and Netflixs videos about 5-10 hours a day while working.
Here comes the internet to the rescue. That’s when I read many post out there that Comcast Business class internet doesn’t have such limits! I called them up right away and signed up for $59.99 Comcast Business Class Starter internet play. Here’s my usage below:

As you can see that’s lots of video’s watching! I’m so happy with Business Class internet! I have to say its seem like its faster for 12MB/2mb comparing to residential service. It’s more stable than my residentual internet. I had lots of issues having Comcast come out to fix it. They never really fix anything except charge me for the service fee. The disconnects happens at night around 8-5am while I’m trying to get my work done. Now after I have switched over to Business Class Internet Starter package I never had any problems for a monthly from the above bandwidth. I’m burning 3x times the bandwidth that I use to burn. Before I was using around 300 a month! I love the feeling of no limitations.
