You all, and I mean Lee, and the two Johns and Ed, and a few once in a whiles are absolutely fascinating, despite the fact that all of this is a MYSTERIUM MAGNUM to me. Nevertheless, sometimes I get a bit of a glance in down and uploads and imagine pulleys with big loads going up, and the others sliding down with either Insight BB or AT&T on them, wondering how many Gigabites all my thousands and thousands of emails might count altogether. Then I try to follow Lee's climbing into the underworld,the belly of the beast and talking UFS ( why not UFOs) GUID, HFS, MS-DOS with Nelsn, -----

Oh, what I would give to follow these discussions having somebody sit down with me to explain! I will get something from Jonathan, when he comes over, but I always have so many lower level questions, we don't even get to climb into the big maze.

Couldn't we have a meeting and somebody gave explanation in "lower case" English? As a Daddy explains God to a four year old?

No we(Insight) don't have a packet download limit. I walked over and spoke with the folks that take care of the engineering of Insight BB and we don't! In fact I was told, that they don't know of any ISP that does this...

You where hitting the packet download limit and the connection was being reset. One of the reasons I do not have Insight. I do a lot of beta testing some software companies that we All know and love and download gigabytes of data every day and ran into this problem. This is only get worse as we push into the HD TV world the bandwidth on a standard cable line is just not there for all the data they are trying to push down the intertubes now.

Does Insight have such a limit? I've never heard of it. I've regularly downloaded files as large as 8GB with no trouble over Insight.
