Default Suggestion: Bandwidth Limit

Hi all; I just got an e-mail from my ISP; I'm using 'too much bandwidth' on my 'unlimited use' cable modem account (well, OK, maybe I've been leaving Phex on most days, but still... O. Their TOS is intentionally vague, so I've asked them what they mean by 'too much'.

In the mean time, I just wanted to make a suggestion; perhaps in future versions of Phex, it could monitor the total amount of traffic its responsible for and have an option to disconnect after a certain specified amount per specified time unit. Maybe after the time unit has elapsed, it could go back into action.

Just a suggestion though. I'll go back to grumbling about my ISP now...

(who has reduced the values in his bandwidth settings and won't be leaving Phex on all night anymore ):
