Hey everyone,

I have a contract with UPC for access to a fiber optic connection. In the contract it is stated that the amount of Internet data transferred is not measured and there are no limits on this issue. However, I would like to ask if this is actually the case? Can I download for example 100 TB per month without any problems? How does this work in practice?

    I know Xfinity has a limit but I pay to have none. CenturyLink does not have a limit. So you may not have a limit. Google if your IP has a data cap.

      That data cap actually doesn’t exist in their North East market.

          I just found out about it this month. So far for July I’ve downed 4.5TB and no peep from them yet!

      Google if your IP has a data cap.

      I searched for this phrase and found several topics on forums, including reddit. One user wrote that he transfers about 15 TB a month and they don’t make any problems for him because of it.
