Discover Byte 5 (5 GB) Cap

February 23rd, 2010

Time to face the music.

These companies are here to make money. E 'number one priority. Good customer service, good prices and good plans only exist for a profit.

Companies used to offer unlimited plans, waiting to be able to do so many (read: too much for the download). Led the industry to create the structure popular:
Basic Plan – 50 megabytes (MB) or less
Medium Plans – 5 gigabytes (GB) AC
Unlimited Plans

Okay, most peoplewhich means unlimited, but what the hell is 50 MB or 5 GB?
It's not like the phone companies, where you can count the minutes. Know little. We always read constantly!

Telling someone that will be there in 5 minutes and they get it. Tell 'em you go over your pet to use in the next 10 megabytes, and expects that the "Lost in Space" look.

Today we will demystify the jargon, the whole government. I will guide you through:
What can you do with 50 MB of data
What can you do with 5 GB of data
What can you do with an unlimited exchange of data
How to choose an ingenious plan to avoid key to the use of bandwidth too far out.

Basic Plan

Are good, clean base. If you're not careful, you will blaze with 50 MB faster than Michael Phelps in the water at the Olympics. Is not just a hope. This is not to receive it? Not necessarily.
The effectiveness of a plan can only work if you check e-mail with the web. Big filesbecomes questionable. Looking for Windows to work. Some changes may be 100 MB or more. The last thing you need is to get hit with a bill gazillion dollar and all that did was to restart the computer. Microsoft thank you!
Download movies or music is just out of the question. The album average is about 80 MB, 700 MB while the film is at its best. Naturally, this leads us to impossible questions like "What is the meaning of life?" and …
"Man, so what can you get 50 MBmine? "

Netratings.com Nielsen says that the average American surfer loads 1500 + pages per month. Popular web sites may junked by advertising, so that each account for the 100-200KB of data transferred.

- CNN.com has 93kB, while Google has only 6 k –

This means that the average, a typical user download more than 20MB of data just to'web browsing routine'. Is not your e-mail, you can download using the desktop client like Outlook.
The problem is not so much e-mail here, but spam. If possible, try to avoid using Outlook to download all your e-mail. Try a web-based e-mail like Gmail or Yahoo. In this way, if you are not spam, is in a folder that you downloaded (read: you pay for it).

Below is a table showing a summary of what we talked so muchver:

————————————————– ———————————-
Activities / Download | File Size | # times before hitting 50 MB
1 e-mail | 10 KB | 5000
1 visit to CNN | ~ 100 KB | 512
1 song downloaded from iTunes | 4 MB | 13
Typically 1-3 minute video on YouTube / Google | 5 MB | 10
————————————————– ————————————

Yes, just e-mail? Then you canreceive a basic level. If not, then you may need to consider:

Byte 5 floors
I give it to you directly. A plan of 5 GB will be over the worst. Not for advanced users. Now, how can you tell if you are a regular or a power user? Ask yourself the following questions:

————————————————– —————————
Question | Medium Template | Power User
Using the Internet more than 3 hours a day? | No | Yes
It will be an Aircardconnect your head? | No | Yes
I want to download music and movies regularly? | No | Yes
Have streaming movies / music on a regular basis? | No | Yes
————————————————– ——————————

If yes to more than 1 of these questions? Then perhaps you're a power user and the need to control an unlimited plan. Not sure? A look at:

Unlimited Plans

Just the fact that you have read this passage probably means that this plan would have required.
Or're on the road from airport to airport construction sites or download movies and music, you are connected. You're a power user through.

Provider of mobile broadband may tremble at the mention of his name. Nothing less would suffice unlimited. If this is so, there are only a handful of carriers offer unlimited mobile broadband. At the end of this article, you can see.

Although the unlimited plan be "banned" for useget banned from your ISP. These include:
Always on connections such as P2P, BitTorrent, server appliance
Spam
Auto-responder, which creates "excessive" traffic
Any form of hacking

Thinking in this way. Just do not want you to suck all the Internet for you, as an industrial vacuum is not. Although it may be fun, it would be selfish. Besides that, you should be fine.

So, to summarize what we covered:
The plans are great for basiconly on the Web and check e-mail
Medium (5 GB), work plans and for most people
Unlimited plans for advanced users who use the Internet "intense"
Looking at mobile broadband suspicious activity using (if not, I can not look thin! ")

Now you know how the individual plans, which can be obtained. Heck, you probably already know what you get.
Stop yourself.

What happens if you get and does not work for you? Or have you, and you realize thatIs not for you? It would really bite to be fixed for 2 years to pay for something they did not like.
