I don't understand why the backup option wasn't to boot the one customer whose traffic was killing the company, instead of losing several other clients and going out of business. Yes, try to fix things, and he succeeded, but it seems like he didn't even consider getting rid of the problem customer to save the company.

- bluedino 12y agoHub? Why not just set the NIC of the customers machine (or their switch port) to 10mb.
- phaemon 12y agoADSL broadband was only introduced to the UK in the year 2000, so 10Mb might be pushing the boat out a bit. A better question is who on earth were they hosting who had a website that was that popular back then? Napster?
