Ok, so my isp (www.surewestwireless.net) caps my download speeds for newgroups at 128kbp. I was wondering (my friend has comcast which uses giganews) if we both signed up through giganews, could i use that instead of my surewest isp and use the giganews, i wanted to sign up for unlimited so my download speed will not be capped. I know my question seems out of place but does anyone know where i am getting at, basically i just want to use giganews to download shit from newsgroups at my full download speed instead of at 128kbps. Thanks

no its not, the free comcast is capped at 2gb... i was planning on ordering the platinum service so i could use it on my isp, so i wouldn't be capped at 128kbps.. but i just don't know if i can do that or not since im on a different isp, that is what i am wondering

ok, so if i signed up for the platinum giganews, i should be able to use the same acount and split it between my friend? i would have one with my isp and be able to download as fast as my isp can handle? and he should be able to have an acount for his isp which is comcast (i already know it should work for him)
