So this begs the question... What 'plan' are you on with Ihug?

I looked at the ihug site and the only ultra options they have listed there
are 'Monthly 500' and extra data blocks which seem to work out at $50/Gb?
That can't be right, as you'd just have spend $100 downloading a distro?!?

It doesn't mention any 'local data is free' type things like I'm sure it
used to...

Cheers,  Chris Hellyar.

After a quick calculation I get approx 40hrs to download
the latest Redhat (approx 2Gigabytes)
128k ~ 16 kilobytes/sec
2000Mega at 16 kB/sec approx 34 hours.

I use the terrestrial version of Ihug Ultra and managed to suck
down RH7.3 in a little over 3 1/2 hrs from phys.canterbury

I think that works out at approx 1.26 Mbits/sec.
