Answer» Perhaps, Admin - but, for what it's worth, I'm certain that they do not want the customer to know.Perhaps. ALTHOUGH I'd prefer customers knowing over a lawsuit if I were Comcast.

You can check your bandwidth usage FOR the Comcast service but Comcast ain't helping you do it so you have to find the solution yourself.I hate to say, "I told you", but... http://www.pcworld.com/article/151589/article.html?tk=nl_cxanws Quote A usage cap can be applied poorly, too. Time Warner Cable, for instance, is testing a system in Beaumont, Texas, that applies caps and overage charges--its Internet access plans look a lot like cell phone plans. Time Warner customers choose plans that range from $30 per month for 5GB and a 5-mbps connection to $55 per month for 40GB and a 15-mbps connection. Considering that nifty but high-bandwidth online services such as Mozy backups and Netflix movie streaming could easily push someone over 40GB in a month, let alone 5GB, I REALLY don't like Time Warner Cable's idea, to put it mildly. To my dismay, Comcast says it's "very interested" in seeing how the Beaumont trials turn out, and that it might move toward such a model in the future.
