LOL I don’t know. but it looks to me like 300GB is considerable internet usage for a typical at home user.

I have been on the 300GB limit in Memphis for quite a while. Netflix does not count, for some strange reason.

I piggy back (switch to home WIFI) on my Galaxy. I have lower caps on my Tmobile account. I say I don’t have caps but after checking apparently I do. AT&T doesn’t charge for going over a 150GB cap in a month but will if you do it every month for few months. Their excuse is that high users causes congestion. Like driving a truck down a two lane freeway meant for compact cars. ISP’s then charge the trucks for using the roads and pocket the money instead reinvesting it in the infrastructure to build bigger better roads.

Not in this day and age. Three teenagers and a wife all with wifi devices, plus their friends when they come over. We don’t use cable, only streaming. Along with my usage, we easily download a minimum of 250G a month. That is with restrictions I have put in place. WiFi goes off between midnight and 5:30 a.m. No internet.

One hour of YouTube can eat up 2G to 3G easily. Multiply by 4 or 5 people once a day, plus a movie on the weekends. You reach 300G real quick.
