AT&T - INET Data Caps
Hello All,

This past week when I was helping my father perform some home networking, I
called AT&T to get a newer Arris router and they mentioned that if I were
to upgrade his service, he would fall under a 1 TB data cap for home
internet. Is this just in FL or have others seen similar restrictions with
AT&T? Thanks!

Yes this is common business practice for almost all of the MSOs.

We have employees using Comcast at home and they have a max of 1TB per
month. They are now going after clients forcing them to update to an
unlimited plan or pay per GB over 1TGB.

Hello All,



This past week when I was helping my father perform some home networking, I called AT&T to get a newer Arris router and they mentioned that if I were to upgrade his service, he would fall under a 1 TB data cap for home internet. Is this just in FL or have others seen similar restrictions with AT&T? Thanks!
