Fair Use Policy?

"Unlimited" is never actually 'unlimited'! What it means is that you can download/upload as much as you like provided that you do it over a reasonable period of time. Many ISPs have this "Fair Use" clause which is there to protect them against people who could seriously slow down the connection (or make it unavailable) for other users. Very few of them actually specify what constitutes "Fair Use" but there is a limit on how much data you are expected to download/upload in any given time period (it is often a daily limit). ISPs vary in how they implement this policy. Some will just reduce the speed of the connection (if you are on a nominal 10Mbps connection, you will drop to 2Mbps, for example). Mine (Virgin Media) will disconnect me from time to time and I then have to reset the modem and the wireless router (which, in my case, are separate) by switching off, waiting for a minute and switching on again. Others will not actually disconnect you but will send you a warning notice, though allowing you to continue browsing on a limited bandwidth.

Ah, A lot of local networks are currently doing this now. This is because there are a lot of people who uses the internet extensively on any given day. Their usage takes up a lot of bandwidth, and thus other internet subscribers have lower chance to get into the system with the same speed, etc. say, you subscribed to an internet with a monthly bill of 900 pesos (unlimited) and you were given the fair use policy of about 10GB, it meant that on any given day, your data usage should not reach 10GB. this will be refreshed the next day. so the next day your internet service is reset to 0 and you can use again.

Hello friend, The "Unlimited" service really does mean that you can download as much as you can. However, once you reach a download limit, say 50 GB for a month, your original speed would be downgraded to may be half or one third of the original speed. For example, we have a 10 Mbps unlimited download plan with a download limit of 30 GB. Once we cross that 30 GB limit, our speed reduces to 2 Mbps. We are still able to download as much as we want to, but the speed is slow.

Well, this is a question that I can not give an exact answer. I can only say in general terms to "to approach to the real answer." You probably have a unlimited subscription to the Internet. Now here in my country (Italy) it happens that, despite you have unlimited, 10Gb passed, the system slows down the data in both input and output. This could therefore affect the downloading of some applications. I responded according to my personal hypothesis. Does not mean that correspond to the reality.

Most of the company tells the same. Tell us that they can provide unlimited calls or internet but when it cames to reality it turns unfair. This turned out as an common pratices by the copmany. They make use of us and make their pockets bigger and bigger
