create that customers want?
How can I create these cost effectively?
Customer Service:

8. Counter Based BandwidthThis feature enables an ISP to attach a bandwidth to any counter offering. The customer is moved to that bandwidth when the counter matches e.g. offering a 4mbps bandwidth with a Night Counter. The counter could be bundled with the base subscription or it could be an add-on counter subscribed separately by the customer.
