- hramos, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1What will happen to all those homes with unencrypted wireless? I want to see what comes down when people who only slightly use bandwidth get their $17 bill.
- Matrakon, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1cap of 200gb or 300gb make sense but wtf? 40gb residential and 60gb commercial is totally BS.
- neurogenesis, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Think about it this way: The average household has at least 2 computers. Add to that a console or two that use Internet services to add that extra depth of game play. No one, under these circumstances, would avoid paying the extra $17/month at least once or twice.
- zitizen, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1i understand that is the same company that capped the downloading speed of many ports/services too.
- andreusboy, on 07/10/2008, -0/+1What the hell people is not like we have choices. This overimposed duopoly they have here severily limits competition and inovation. Im ethier stuck with crappy expensive PRT service or this fudge packers that deliver a half assed internet. And what the stupid junta de gobierno is gonna do? They're all a bunch of bureocrats in the pockets of the executives of these parasitic corporations.
- rael00, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0What the heck, i use to live in PR and Onelink was not that bad, but if this is how they treat the customers, they should go out of business.
Esto si es ridiculo, primero eran adelphia, luego onelink, prometieron miles de cosas y ahora nos tratan asi?? estan locos, deberian cerrar ya que nunca han podido mantener una promesa, y no pasa un mes sin que haya interrupcion de servicio. - malangacon, on 03/01/2009, -0/+0Somebody know how to see the gygabytes you download?
- joybob, on 10/13/2007, -0/+0I use Onelink for cabletv and have my own beef with them for not supporting my Tivo. The place to complain would be http://www.jrtpr.gobierno.pr/ They have local jurisdiction over telecommunications and it would be very simple to file a claim saying that they are charging customers excessively for internet access. $1.50 per gig; do the math. If you can switch to DSL I'd recommend you do. P2P and torrents aren't disabled, there isn't a download cap and even on the slowest accounts you can download 160 gigs monthly.
- rafitorres, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0I would hardly call $55/month for 40GB (which is what OneLink charges for service) cheap.
- Error601, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1If you want more, stop crying, and pay the hundreds to thousands a month the rest of us do for a business grade service. What bizarre logic makes people think anyone can offer the same service at a consumer level for so cheap?
- hondasr, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0omg this is bull** In europe the cable price is drop down and in here this check this out in France Free a cable company offer 100mb down 50 mb up unlimited plus digital cable and digital telephone FFHT (Fiber to the home) for only 29.99 euro. http://www.freenews.fr/nat/5154-ftth-offre-ftth-de-free-j-15.html
- rafitorres, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0As someone else has said, this pretty much is a price increase disguised as a cap. 40GB is such a ridiculously low limit that so many people will be affected by it; they must not have thought this through very well. Just imagine the number of angry customers (power users, parents of teenage kids) calling in after they see an extra $17, $34 or much more on their bill.
