Shaping of Residential Grade ADSL Services |
|---|
|
Shaping affects Basic Plans where the capped option has been seleted and Flat Rate Plans (512 / 128 Kb & 1.5 Mb / 256 Kb). Shaping operates on a 30 day rolling cycle. Each day at approximately 4:00am AEST, our systems calculate the previous 30 day data total. If this total exceeds the Included Data limit for the plan, the connection is shaped to 56 Kb/s. Shaping will continue until the total for the previous 30 days falls below the Included Data limit applicable to the plan. Shaping on a 30 day rolling cycle reduces spikes of usage on the network.
This results in improved network performance for all customers. The 30 day cycle creates a
more consistent experience for all users, by producing a faster turnaround. |
