Niel: Has anyone noticed how fast YouTube is buffering now? Nice, good solution WxC!
Trkstr: IS it because of the release of this new plan that my speeds have suddenly gone to crap (like sub 1mbit sync rates) consistently?
Or did the techinician who supposedly 'reset my port' when i complained about sub 1.5mbit sync rates, do a botched up job of it?
Cos if these speeds get faster i'm down for joining this new plan as well.

Bad sync rates are usually not the fault of your ISP.

i'm sorry i wasn't meaning to blame my bad sync rates on the ISP. I was just wondering that if the release of the new plan meant more people are coming online later at night, meaning that my sync rates will drop as very late evening becomes more congested.
I wasn't implying anything about the ISP. I'm sorry if it came across that way.
joshp: In terms of the naming of the plan.. it went quite well with our current naming scheme:
stream
river
flood
and now torrent..
was quite a nice fit really :)

This torrent plan has certainly relieved the congestion in peak periods although I had a bit of a problem this morning as I had a 35GB data cap and we went over it. I had to ring CS to reset the cap as we had been throttled back and on this plan you cant reset the data cap on your computer at this stage. I was able to watch a you tube video straight away last night no problems. Monsoon eh sounds good but before torrent came along you could easily have named the other 3 trickle
Yes we were made awre of this this morning, being recitifed as we speak.
ninjabear: Will xnet be updating its usage monitor application or online as at the moment there's no way to check how much off peak and peak data you have use.Even with softwares like DU meter it only shows the total.It can't differnentiate off peak and peak time
maverick: The usage monitor will hopefully be updated and available by the end of the week, we didn't want to hold the plan up due to this as we were getting enough ribbing about a release date....hence the reason I generally dont give release dates and will go back to that I think <img src="https://cdn.tinymce.com/4/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-tongue-out.gif" border="0" alt="Tongue out" title="Tongue out" />, wanting to do a couple of things with this so need a bit extra time.<br /><br />Yes we do look at people requests Filterer, we will see what we come up with,
frio:Filterer: Hey mav, any further word on if/how the useage monitor is going to reflect this change?
If it needs a changing please consider my earlier request of also splitting up/down traffic in the report (even if its not displayed to the user but is available in the xml feed.
Edit: just looked at the firefox extension source for the latest version, it doesn't seem to have been changed to reflect the torrent plan... How are we supposed to know when we go over the 75GB?
Don't worry, we heard you ;). The latest Firefox version was pretty much a stopgap to make it compatible with Firefox 3 (you'll note the only thing that changed was the install.rdf file to sign updates and to bump the maximum version number).
There's more on the way though (initially to get support for Torrent out, but long-term we've got some exciting stuff planned!), so stay tuned!
