FAP (Fair Access Policy, also called Throughput) Rate
FAP or Fair Access policy refers to the maximum amount of MegaBytes you can download in a 24 hour period before the account is slowed down to the "Recovery Rate"
Recovery Rate for FAP
If you download more than the maximum allowed Throughput for your account type in a 24 hour period, your account will slow down
