I've looked at the options to cut my phone package down to minimum and sign on to Engin and looks like I could save about $15 to $20 per month.

One last question before I jump in...

My ISP is Internode and rather than charge excess usage fees if I go over my allowed download limit they throttle my speed.

What would happen to my engin service if my speed was throttled back from 8 Mbps to 64kbps?

Also so I have some idea of how this will effect my download quota how much data is sent in an average 1 minute phone call?

One final question - I have multiple phone points in my house for hooking up phones (eg upsatirs and downstairs). Will the Engin phone work from all the handsets or only the one near the broadband router.
