Gigabit Internet TOS?

[Baron]

Do you guys have the terms of service for your gigabit internet up yet? I would like to read it.

Currently our gigabit fiber customers are operating off the general AUP.

Anything specific you're wondering about?

Just wanted to read the TOS.

Is there really no bandwidth cap? I guess its easier for you guys since you are a local company. Unlike the other big companies which provide nation wide/multiple states with service and have bandwidth caps ranging from 100GB-500GB/month. I don't really like have a bandwidth cap as I do alot of video steaming(youtube, hulu, netflix, etc.). Maybe if I'm living alone but I will most likely be living with friends who each have their own computer too.

Do you guys block any ports? Any hidden fees?

There aren't "hidden fees," but there are various taxes applied to phone service, some of which technically are fees. The gigabit fiber product includes two voice lines. For Sebastopol those currently add up to $9.47 per line, so there's another $18.94.

As for ports, we block port 25 on all dynamic IP circuits. If somebody pwns your unpatched Windows box and wants to source spam at 1gbps, they'll have to find a middle-man.

Our household just got hit with a web-blocked, mandatory message from Sonic.net that served as a "first strike" notification that we had exceeded a new 150GB monthly data cap on our supposedly "unlimited" broadband account. So much for the vaunted Sonic.net "anti-cap" stance. What a crock.

Are you on the Gigabit service, or are you hijacking a thread?

I've actually never heard of such a thing happening... the alleged cap or notice thereof, not the hijacking of a thread.

He's mixing up Suddenlink with Sonic.net. See here:

I guess he got "Suddenly" capped by them, and got confused about who his provider was.
