Can I transfer an unlimited amount of data over my connection, ie. can I do an unlimited amount of downloading per month?
• Depending upon which package you signed up for, you have a basic monthly bandwidth (upload and download combined) traffic limit that is included in the base price. This is called a “soft limit” because you are not prevented from going over that limit if you continue to upload or download more files. If you exceed this limit, GNI will contact you and ask you to slow down your Internet usage so as to avoid being charged a per-GB fee for bandwidth overusage. Other ISP’s may also offer ‘unlimited’ data transfers, however, there is NO SUCH THING; every Internet service provider has a finite amount of data that they are willing to allocate to a customer. If you go beyond that amount, they may notify you, they may extra-bill you, or they may simply disconnect you. We simply believe in being up front with you about what those limits are.
