1.1MB/s = 8.8Mb/s so I guess you answered my question about if you were capped at 4Mbps. We have to assume your at atleast 10Mbps.

I switched to cari.net last June, and have been mostly happy

I've got is a 3.0-GB P4 with hyper threading, 1-GB of ram,

IP's for $62.00 per month.

Something is rotten in the state of Denmark... :-)

1.2TB/month is the equivalent of almost 2Mb/s  There's no effing way on
Earth they're giving you that kind of connectivity for $62 per month,
even considering the absolute cheapest, crappiest bandwidth provider in
the world.

How much bandwidth do you actually use?  How do they monitor and bill
for it?  What kind of throughput do you actually see?  I'm guessing
either you're capped at a much lower rate and haven't noticed, or that
if you actually started using that kind of bandwidth, you'd be getting a
surprise in your next bill :-)
Hi John,

I know, sounds like a lot.  From their web site:

 4Mbps Multi-Homed Bandwidth (=1200GB Transfer)

I just tried sending/receiving a 21-MB file from a
fat-pipe and got the following with ssh:

 to cari.net:    100%   21MB   1.1MB/s   00:19



 from cari.net:  100%   21MB 713.0KB/s   00:30

I just switched my load to cari a few weeks ago,
but so far, so good.  It's actually $59/mo for the
basic service, I've got three extra IP's for which
they charge $1.00/mo each.

Regards,
Lew
