Internet Woes

Thanks to the way our ISP provides service my internet access is almost non-existent until the 26th of September. A certain Daughter (who shall remain nameless) used up out entire quota of access a week early.
It is an odd system, but under our current service contract we get 25 gigabytes of use per month after which we are "shaped" back to a 64K speed.
The internet slows to a crawl and it basically useless for anything other than email. So I am sorry to say I won't be making a proper post for the next few days.
We are looking at a service upgrade, but that is likely to take a month or so due to the incredible efficiency (sarcasm intended) of the telecommunications industry in Oz.
