You're not saving bandwidth, you're losing it. They will transfer 1 gig
before or after. But if you start hindering the speeds it takes them
longer to do the work. If you let them go full throttle it will utilize as

Part of my point is we don't do computer repair. We are a communications
provider. Some might see an opportunity to upsell the customer to a router.
The margin is not there unless you are doing computer repair and have the

Yes there are. But the ones who don't know what you are doing cost you
money, time, and reputation.
Had one guy just the other day called every time his Internet went out. This
