ELN, TOS, Blocking
from DSL Reports: "Read Your TOS - Earthlink's fine print on VoIP service .....
When Clearwire said they'd be blocking VoIP and other traffic as they deemed necessary, we mentioned many ISPs bury such a right away in their TOS - just in case. Users of Dave Farber's Interesting people list discover Earthlink's cable terms of service includes just such a provision (even if it's never enforced): "You many not use any alternate connection or client software with roaming or voice capability in connection with this service. The Earthlink wireless enhances access service is for data only. Violation of this part of the agreement will result in an additional charge of $0.95 per minute of unauthorized voice usage and suspension or cancellation of your account." (The word WIRELESS was only inserted after the recent VoIP blocking debate.)"
