[06] IS THERE A TIME LIMIT? HOW MANY HOURS DO I GET A MONTH?

    Analogue (56kbps or lower) MODEM connections are metered and
    can be used to an average of 15 hours a day per month.  If you
    regularly exceed 15 hours a day, you may be 'banned' by the
    tier 1 networks as you will be in violation of their terms of
    service.

    ISDN (64kbps-128kbps) NT1/TA connnections are metered up to 300
    hours per month.  Once you reach the 300 hour limit (roughly
    10+ hours of service a day!) your connection will drop and you
    will be unable to authenticate until the 1st of the next month.

    Since ISDN connections can be established so much faster than
    analogue connections, its recommended that you set your NT1/TA
    in 'dial on network demand' mode to avoid using up your hours.

    You can use the 'dialstats' command to view your current usage.
    Usage numbers are reset on the first of every month.  Only users
    who have used a total of 50 hours in a single month are listed.
