I'm on a gigabit port, but the billing model my host uses is average
usage level. I'm allowed to average 100 megabits, which means I really
don't need to push more than 200 or so at any given time, taking into
account peak versus off peak times. If I were peaking at 380 megabit
consistently I'd probably be averaging about 200 megabit, which is
double what I'm paying for. I hope that clears things up.
