Seems strange/wrong. Especially if you consider it / market it as "business grade" I'd not expect to see a residential-smelling 'fair use' clause, especially if you're not really defining what that is. I think if I were a business and bought a 20Mbps "Business grade" unlimited link, I'd fully expect to be able to smash it 24/7.<span class="m_-8142447099871913191HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br><br>Sam<br><br><br></font></span></div></div></div></div>
