Their billing and throttling software was previously incompatible with Linux, and hence. Yes, I know they should have used a better software, but then when an academic institution like our college cannot make a shift to Linux, why blame Pacenet, a commercial venture? Though the absurd policy of not allowing Linux for connections lower than 64 kbps is ridiculous. My friend has been using Pacenet on Linux for a few weeks now, (64 kbps plan) and he reports it is only a decent experience, with actual download speeds being lower than those in Windows... And Pacenet has it's own advantages... Try using P2P such as ODC... You can get a lot of stuff that way for free! There is a reason Pacenet would not support Linux.
