I read briefly on another forum that a Cable user had set up the following:

"Luckily my good buddy Ungood told me about setting up a light timer with the old Motorolla cable modems, and apparently it resets the counter because they use the internal counter on the modem, rather than tracking it on their end."

I am woundering if any of you are familiar with this kind of set up? And if there is a setup available for a DSL modem D-Link 300G?

I have been downloading quite a bit on my new provider (Telus) 40 Gigs last month and 50 already this month. Their acceptable Usage terms say 10 Gigs a month max, I haven't received a phone call from them yet... but I was thinking if I do in the near future I could sett up something like mentioned above.

I have searched the net but haven't found any work arounds yet, I will keep looking and post here if I find anything.

Anything would be greatly appreciated!

Kris.
