They cap you at...well, when I had it it was 1.5mbps down, and 384kbps up. yes, I know a lot of other cable companies allow their users to suck every last bit of speed that is available on their main lines, but rr doesn't, and therefore, if they try and enforce something like a policy on running servers, I don't see where they'd be coming from. if a company allowed you to use all available bandwidth, then I could understand, but very few cable companies do that any more...unfortunately. :)
