Technically this is a server and thus NOT allowed by our terms of service. However we will allow customers to run the software as long as they do not leave it running constantly or use it to send large numbers of files to the Internet. Note that the music and entertainment industry now contacts ISPs about customers who are using their networks to send copyrighted materials. If we receive complaints about customers sending out copyrighted materials we have no choice but to terminate their account.

Your download speed is the speed at which you can retrieve files from the Internet into your home network or computers. Your upload speed is the speed at which you can send files to the Internet from your home network or computers. Our minimum account is 4 Megabits down and 1 Megabit up for a combined total of 5 Megabits or 5 Million bits per second. For comparison a 56k dial up Internet modem only runs around 35Kilobits or 35 thousand bits per second total for up and down speeds combined. This means our slowest account is approximately 143 times faster than a dial up Internet modem and our fastest standard accounts are up to 285 times faster than a modem.
