So we are shaped...for the second time this month...
In other words just under a week ago we had already used up our 100Gb for the month and were barely half way through. But watching streamed videos when shaped is just painful so we got another 5Gb. And now, despite limiting the kids to internet every other day, that is used up too.
Watching streamed video is, of course, necessary for my course. At least, it should be possible to download the videos and watch them offline, but a security update to IE a couple of weeks ago seems to have rendered downloading them impossible.
Our allowance doesn't roll over again until the 11th...
