Proof that Clear (ClearWire) is the worst ISP in existence. They actually say in their AUP (Acceptable Use Policy) that you cant do anything with the connection that makes it worth beans to anyone who downloads files, or games on things like Steam, or Xbox live. Here is a direct quote from their AUP which is not in the EULA you sign. “Examples of uses that are not permitted include the continuous unattended streaming, downloading or uploading of videos or other files, maintaining an unattended or continuous uninterrupted connection to the Internet such as through a web camera or machine to machine connections that do not involve active participation by a person, or operating an Internet hosting service such as web hosting or gaming hosting.” And here is the excerpt of what IS allowed “The Service provided to you is intended for reasonable, periodic, non-continuous use by a person using a computing device, consistent with the type of use made by a typical individual consumer of our Internet services. Examples of allowed uses of our Service include web surfing, sending and receiving email, sending and receiving photographs, occasional on-line gaming, and the occasional non-continuous streaming of videos and downloading of files.” This is absolutely bogus, and if I had been informed of this AUP when i was singing up, I would of walked away then and there.
