Bandwidth

[Dick Tater]

I have a question about downloading. When I download using a news server
(such as Giganews) and am using their bandwidth to download music, movies,
videos, etc. via my newsreader.... does the bandwidth I use from my news
server register with my ISP. Does a 4 gig download from my my news server
equate to a 4 gig download from my ISP?

I am connected to my news server from my ISP. So it seems that I am using
the same amount of bandwidth from the ISP as I am from my news server.
Thanks.

Sorry about being off topic but I didn't know where else to post this.

Hi,

Anything you get from any internet sources goes through your ISP's lines and
uses the bandwidth they have leased to you.

Bill, that's a good one. No kin to Tots. Have granddaughter named Emma
Tater, though.

In future, please abbreviate the word "bandwidth" as "bndwth," thereby
saving precious bndwth.
