It's the same set up I had on DSL, which I set up myself.
After further reading, I find this in Cox's "Acceptable Use Policy " -
13. # Bandwidth, Data Storage and Other Limitations. Cox offers multiple packages of Service with varying speeds and features and bandwidth usage limitations (not all packages are available in all areas). You must comply with the current bandwidth, data storage, electronic mail and other Limitations of Service that correspond with the package of Service you selected. In addition to complying with the limitations for specific features, you must ensure that your activities do not improperly restrict, inhibit, or degrade any other user's use of the Service, nor represent (in Cox’s sole judgment) an unusually great burden on the network itself. In addition, you must ensure that your use does not improperly restrict, inhibit, disrupt, degrade or impede Cox's ability to deliver the Service and monitor the Service, backbone, network nodes, and/or other network services. If you use excessive bandwidth as determined by Cox), Cox may terminate, suspend, or require you to upgrade the Service and pay additional fees.
I opted for their "Preferred Package" and the "Limitations of Service" has this to say -
Preferred Package
Feature Maximum Limit
1. Maximum downstream speed 4 - 5 megabits per second
2. Maximum upstream speed 1 512 kilobits – 2 megabits per second
3. Maximum monthly consumption cap 40 gigabytes downstream; 10 gigabytes upstream
4. Personal WebSpace account size 10 megabytes of disk space per User ID
5. Personal WebSpace traffic 300 megabytes of traffic per month (for visitors viewing your pages)
Is this just Cox West Texas, or does anybody else have this in their agreements?
With a cap of 40 gig per month, I may have to go back to DSL.
