Steam servers help

[Vault101]

Ok so Im not enitirely sure how this works

so aparantly some internet providers in Australia have their own steam content servers, mainly Bigpond/telstra so dose this mean If I have that provider I can use the downloads without it affecting my limit? I went into settings and switched the server to Australia NSW (telstra)

or is there more to it than that? any help would be greatly apreciated

Here's what you do:
1. Uninstall steam.
2. Buy hard copies of all the games you would otherwise buy from steam.
3. Laugh, never look back.
4. Enjoy your games.

1. hahaha no way not worth the trouble plus I wouldnt be able to play my games
2. I already do, youd think if I dont have the interent to update a measyly 1900mb (you have to if you want to play) then I definetly dont have the internet to download 10gb
3. Im certainly not right now
4. I can't....I dont have internet right now

Im guessing youve never actually had to deal with steam

On topic, no, I think you've done all you need to. SHOULD work, but... probably won't, just because I said it will.

I have. I hated it. I never dealt with it again.

Hatred implies a lack of reason. I dislike steam because digital distribution is an enemy of gaming, Valve is an enemy of gaming, and Steam is a digital distribution platform that Valve profits from.

As a reformed PC gamer I will just say this: The only things you won't be able to get if you go console are MMOs, RTSes, and certain indie titles. Unless that's your gaming palate, there is a win scenario here.
