There are solutions, like force the user to use a socks 4/5 proxy you
would provide and do the accounting on it. however, the user needs some
knowledge... to configure its softwares.. and not all applications
support that (or ignore the global Windows settings)..

Hi,


Cool. So, as a Networker or Sysadmin, it's three steps:

1. Offer customers volume based services
2. Install scripts to ping around randomly
3. Make lots of $$$ fast

Sorry, gotta go talk to my boss...



We've (ImproWare) got also a low entry Cablemodem product, which 
is volume based. You get the speed of 768/128 and 300MB MB Traffic

included for 9.90.-

Although we filter DOS-attacks and don't count ICMP traffic and all router 
advertisments etc, there is always the possibilty to get (unwanted) UDP traffic 
from the net. There is no real solution here, but if a customer detects such an 
attack we just delete those incidents and reassign the Megabytes. But remember 
there are also customers with open WLANs ...


IMHO there is no good solution to solve those issues with volume based services. 
You can just be generous to your customers like we do. Maybe we will hear soon 
how sunrise handles such cases on their ADSL services with dynamic IPs ;-)

Also, what traffic does count? All traffic? Cool, ruin your 
neighbour by ping-flooding him with ping -f -s 2048 or something.

Or just IP? Hmm, well, SYN-Flood or UDP something.

If it's only IP, there is an implementation of IP over ICMP 
called "ptunnel" which can be found here:

http://www.cs.uit.no/~daniels/PingTunnel/

So what? I have almost no traffic whatsoever. And with that low 
bandwidth I don't care about tunneling all traffic to some proxy 
somewhere. The only problem for some users is to be able to use a 
suitable machine as a proxy but this could be whole new service 
to sell. =:-)

En fact the Limit is Fr. 59.-- for the traffic. I think the most
costumer are paying the Limit (total 69.--). For 150/50 is this verry
expensive...
For ADSL i think is the best way a flatrate...
But I write tomorrow mornig what kind of trafic my computer is
making... without makeing sometings.
