Due to the shared nature of wireless connectivity, the actions of My Cuttyhunk Wireless Internet customers affect the connectivity and performance of the neighboring customers serviced from the same central point. While My Cuttyhunk Wireless Internet makes significant efforts to ensure that all wireless customers receive equal minimum bandwidth allocations, there is the possibility that neighboring customers may capitalize on the available bandwidth. To limit this possibility, this Wireless Fair Usage Policy (WFUP) has been enacted.
Minimum Bandwidth Allocation
My Cuttyhunk Wireless Internet maintains a minimum of 256kbps allocated for each customer. While customers may experience speeds faster than 256kbps (while "bursting"), any speed over 256kbps is not guaranteed.
Bursting
Customers may "burst", or experience speeds faster than what is allocated, up to 1.5mbps only for reasonable amounts of time necessary to complete retrieval of e-mail, web pages, etc. Continuously using more than the bandwidth allocated to download large files, send large e-mails, or watch high-bandwidth video streams for long periods of time is not acceptable and may affect the performance of other wireless customers. My Cuttyhunk Wireless Internet may take action against customers capitalizing on available bandwidth as defined below.
Acceptable Usage
Residential My Cuttyhunk Wireless Internet wireless subscribers may not use their wireless connections to run programs or servers that provide network content or connectivity to any 3rd party not at the location where the connection is installed. Examples of prohibited programs include, but are not limited to, mail, FTP, HTTP, game, newsgroup, proxy, and IRC servers. My Cuttyhunk Wireless Internet reminds its customers that illegally distributing copyrighted material over any medium is against U.S. law.
My Cuttyhunk Wireless Internet wireless subscribers may not resell or otherwise charge others for the use of their wireless connection. This service is for recreational, residential, personal use only and may not be used for operation of an Internet Service Provider. Commercial wireless customers are held to these same restrictions and may not use their My Cuttyhunk Wireless Internet wireless service for hosting services of any kind other than those defined above.
All My Cuttyhunk Wireless Internet customers are held to the terms of our Acceptable Usage Policy.
Violations
Customers determined to be in violation of this policy may have service suspended or bandwidth limited as the individual case warrants. Repeat offenders may have service suspended or terminated as My Cuttyhunk Wireless Internet sees fit
