Hi.. Im running a hub, and now I have listed me for 100mb from Bredbandsbolaget. They have a limit at 300Gb. Now to the question...

If I dont download anything, does the hub taking some out of the 300gb limit??
I've heard if you run a hub with about 2000 users you reach the limit in 4-5 days. Anyone that can help me out with this.,.. Is it true???

Yes its true. You will use up the bandwidth in the hub within days if you have a high user-count. Running a hub with 2500 users will approximatly correspond to an upload of 1MiB/s. And if you do the math, that would make your 300GB of tranfers be used up within 4 days. If you have a hub with even more users, you will use up the bandwidth even faster.

Basicly, BBBs 100Mbit offer is crap for those who maximaze their 10Mbit line. They will use it up within a day or so.
