The perverbial mobius strip of hosting

So it seems that I am in the process of adding new customers, once yearly, now increased to monthly (yay?). As much as I like having new customers that pay for the services here, it seems that the more I get, the more I need to upgrade.

My current hosting connection is approx 2Mbps and thats sharing with people who are piggy-backing the same line to get internet. If I block them (or move the servers to a private location), then I’d get the full capability of my bandwidth.

I’m starting to consider whether I should charge the “piggy-backers” for usage of my internet connection as overusage does cost me a little. So far the only complaints, if any, have stemmed from the recent blowing up of a UPS device that didn’t like a small power surge caused by the heat-induced activation of AC units in the neighborhood. Go figure…
