    Hey,

    Just wondering when the Eircom Broadband off-peak times are during the night and if Eircom have started clamping down on users going over their download limit.

    Thanks.

    There is no peak/off-peak with broadband.

    Yes there is, maybe not in Ireland but there is. It's generally between 1am and 7am. I was just wondering when Eircom's is, or if they have one.

    None for BB, there is times where it can be more congested but aren't the phones 6pm to 6am or something

    I was reading some satelite broadband offer that if you download 12am-7am it doesn't get counted toward the data limit, maybe that's what your looking for

    Well, we are in Ireland, and there is no peak/off-peak for broadband. There are congested times, usually 6-11PM. Times of heavy congestion may be considered peak usage times, but this has no baring on your usage limits.

    That's exactly what I was looking for, just wondering if Eircom had one. Thanks though.
