Broadband 40GB (Giga Byte) utilises Manx Telecom ADSL2+ for high
speed Internet access. ADSL2+ uses your existing telephone line and
sockets in parallel with your regular telephone service.
With Broadband you can surf the Internet, download music,
pictures and movies, play online games, keep in touch with friends
and family using email or instant messaging and use the telephone
at the same time.
Who is it for?
If your home has one or two computers and the Internet is used
regularly, even for file downloads, then this could be the package
for you. 40GB is a generous cap for typical family use of the
Internet on one or two computers.
How much is 40GB?
Each calendar month you have an allocation of 40GB of throughput
data to use. Whether you are downloading files, sending emails,
watching videos on BBC iPlayer or YouTube, uploading to Facebook or
just generally surfing the web this all uses your 40GB of data.
As a rough guide, 40GB can be as much as:
|
Usage Type |
Amount |
| Web Surfing |
3280 hours |
| MP3 audio |
6640 |
| Online video |
40 hrs |
| Emails |
40000 |
Figures are to be used as an indicative guide only
and are not exact totals.
Keep an eye on your data use
During the month if you reach 50% or 80% of your allocated data
your Internet browser will be redirected to a advisory page to
notify you. You can also check your Broadband usage via
the Manx Telecom My Account service.

What happens if I use all my data?
In the unlikely event that you use all your data during a month
your Broadband connection speed will still be available, albeit at
a much reduced speed. You then have a few options:
1: Wait till the 1st of the next calendar month, at which time
your new monthly allocation of data will become available at full
speed.
2: Use the online portal, which will be displayed twice an hour,
to pay a release fee to provide unrestricted access at full speed,
till the end of that month at which point your usual monthly
allocation of data will become available.
3: You could contact Sales on 624 624 to upgrade your service to
the next package.
FREE Router
Sign up for 18 months and we will send you a FREE ADSL2+
compatible router. Better still, it'll be pre-configured so all you
