Will it really work against the ISPs? I have three choices in my area: 768kbps - 1mbps adsl through Verizon, 15mbps (nominally, typically 3mbps during peak hours) cable through Cablevision, or 3-6mbps high latency Clear 4G.

Not sure how the third option would hold up for streaming netflix - the first definitely would not.

So really, I don't have any choice about it, so I have no leverage. So capping it won't work against my ISP until they cap it below the other options.



Depending on the area Clearwire works fine for streaming Netflix. I've used it to stream Netflix in NYC, Tampa and Seattle without issue.
