11:34 < Evilpig> I feel for my nephew.  he followed a girl to alabama, mistake #1.  and now he stuck with garbage internet options that should be criminal
11:34 < Evilpig> He can go with mediacomm that for the cheapest plan is 100down, 5up and 300GB a month cap with a $10/50Gb overage
11:36 < Evilpig> or he can stick with this t-mobile hotspot plan that they ahve now called t-mobile magenta that advertises 100Mb down and 5 - 25Mbps up but don't tell you that after you hit Xgb they slow your uplink to .5Mbps and everything comes to a screaching halt
11:38 < Evilpig> a "Heavy Data User" is defined as a customer using more than 50GB of data (100GB of data for new Magenta plans activated beginning February 24, 2021) in a billing cycle.
12:31 < Evilpig>  
13:56 <@opticron> yeah, I have mediacom in AL and have gone with the 300down plan to worry less about the cap
13:57 <@opticron> even with that, I think upload is capped at 25
13:59 < Evilpig> do they have any option to get unlimited bandwidth for $x a month like comcast?
14:00 < Evilpig> I can't even find terms on their site saying that I can supply my own modem to avoid their monthly equipment rental fee
17:33 <@opticron> I forget what the top tier "gigabit" cable is capped at
17:34 <@opticron> their 2G caps at 8.5T/mo
17:34 <@opticron> and claims 1G upload which is laughable
17:35 <@opticron> it's $10/50GB over the cap
23:00 < Evilpig> I did 20T last month.  heh.
