Internet at the Makery (including webcams and telephone) is down until I (or Brandon or James) can get down there to mess with it (Saturday AM at the latest). 

Problems started on Tuesday, following an upgrade that should have improved the reliability of the system.  Sorry for the inconvenience!

One must break a few eggs to make an omelette.  Good Luck!

Yay! I get a 100GB bandwidth cap as well $.50/GB after that.

Seriously, though? How often do you use 100gb/month? I'm looking at my firewall's counters now (which seem to be screwed up, saying that I downloaded just 2.63gb in 315 days of uptime), but I can't imagine that 100gb gets hit very often....

I easily go over that every month, but I don't have cable, and several people using Netflix and hulu as their primary video source, plus a couple of heavy online gamers.

a full back up of my computer to backblaze is 3TB and it can do that in 35 days if i leave my computer on the whole time. Plus I torrent shows, or stream them on amazon prime. I need to download the new OS X which is at least 5GB. Upload photos and videos to youtube G+ and my site A few min HD video could be 2GB if the compression is at full quality. I'll have to schedule my bandwidth intensive tasks for over night i think they said they don't measure it durning sleeping hours. Gotta see when that is exactly. On the plus side they require a DOCSIS 3.0 modem because the connection is 54MB down 2MB up.
