So I am seeding like a mad man and according to my boradband provider I have unlimited usage and data…

But I have heard that others when seeding and they were told they have “unlimited” the broadband provider cut them off after X amount… What can I do to ensure this doesn’t happen?

      All I could find on a quick, cursory search was this, from their ToS:

      What data consumption requirements apply to the Service?

      Comcast applies a monthly data consumption threshold to Xfinity Internet accounts. The company retains the right to trial or adopt a different data consumption threshold or other usage plan for the Service at any time. If we do this we will notify customers and, if necessary, post an updated version of this Policy. You can learn about the data plan that applies in your area by going to https://dataplan.xfinity.com/. You can view your current data usage at any time by signing into your account on xfinity.com and viewing the data usage meter at https://customer.xfinity.com/MyServices/Internet/UsageMeter/. You can also use the Xfinity app to view your data usage.

      I don’t have Comcast, so I can’t get any further details.

      Same with Cox, the default is 1.25 TB. I pay extra for unlimited and use around 7 TB per month. Haven’t heard any complaints for the 2 years I’ve had them. I have a feeling the threshold is something like 8 or 10 TB but I’d rather not find out.
