I setup some traffic monitoring on my router after I heard about this and discovered a constant 10Kb/s stream of ARP traffic. Do the math, that's 3.3GB/month of just ARP requests and answers between routers. A 5GB tier?!

There is less competition in the United States than in many other countries. Broadband already has the highest profit margins of any product cable companies offer.
