bandwidth binge

When you are near the end of the month and you realize you have a huge amount of bandwidth allotted to you by your ISP that doesn't rollover to the next billing cycle. You decide to use it all up before the next billing cycle.
Dan: "Hey Fred, what you are doing this weekend"?

Fred: "I gotta do a bandwidth binge this weekend. I still have 100 gigs of bandwidth that I must use up before the next billing cycle that starts on Monday. Comcast doesn't rollover your unused data to the next month."

Dan: "You must be in Atlanta GA then".

Fred: Nope! I am in Nashville TN."

When your internet can only support one solitary device.

bandwidth

1. A portion of the electromagnetic frequency spectrum, typically used in reference to the transmission of radio frequency signals: e.g. "an analog television channel has a bandwidth of six megahertz"
2. The rate of data transfer over a specific time period, usually expressed either in bits or bytes per second: e.g. "my internet connection provides has a bandwidth of one hundred megabits per second."
3. A word often incorrectly used by business persons or others as a lame excuse for their unwillingness to perform a particular task or project, whilst trying to appear intelligent: (Also see "too busy.")
I don't have the bandwidth to do that.

Bandwidth Snipes

People or isps that repeatedly break into the internet speed system and hijack 99% of the download speed bandwidth while managing to stay hidden which results in a request to the owner of the internet connection to reach out to the relevent isp to get the connection reset so that the speeds go back to the normal advertised speed, in my case 50 mbps down load and 50 mbps upload.
some bandwidth snipes got into my internet traffic and somehow reduced or hijacked all the bandwidth speed again, this is the third or fourth time this year that its happened. Could just be a server or network congestion issue but I doubt it!
