How much data do you use a month?

[Blackterror25]

unlimited but I use about 100gb/month on average.

[James_AJ]

around 150GB each month.

[danthe1man1989]

I get 200Gb for like $110 and the speed is horrible 

[JamesThresher]

Lol, don't worry, I think my upload statistics are one of a kind on this forum

 

Not quite, if I count my work related sites, I do approx 175Tb month ;-), but I run a small data center with multiple uncontended fibre links. From home I do a few Tb a month.

I use 60GB a month on average, but with the 4 of us together in the family it's about 120GB.

FTW are you guys doing that uses so much data?

look up Dutch piracy laws.

I probably use a lot, but I have unlimited downlaods so I'm good

[anticoralian]

On average, 400-800GB a month (goes high if there's big Steam updates/Xbox 360 updates), but the package is unlimited!

A "big" Steam update is like 1MB, and Xbox 360 updates are like 100MB if they are big. Neither of them should affect your upload/download for the month very much. If you turly use 400-800GB a month, then big updates to both Steam and Xbox 360 wouldn't really be noticeable.

We don't have a limit, but we only have 6mbps, so using a lot isn't easy and takes a long time, one 720p youtube vid is about as much as it can handle without slowing down significantly..

I use about 200GB per month

I should clarify that when I say Steam updates, that included each of my 460 Steam games as well as the client?

You got 460 steam games installed? I got 127 games and they take up about 550GB, which means your Steam library would be about 2TB (assuming roughly the same size per game as I have).

That would explain your high data usage though.

i can recommend netspeedmonitor, it's a great little program which shows data usage and speeds, very nice interface

I use about 150GB to 170GB? a month but I have unlimited data so... :D

I apparently use a lot as I get constant email complaints from my college campus computer help desk for sucking down more bandwidth then most dorm halls :P, I went on an update spree one month and also downloaded a ton of Isos and blew past 1TB in a month, that was not fun explaining to them that I deal with large files and large programs for my major, ( alot of my projects are 20-30gb in size and they get sent back and forth through file transfer multiple times, so it rapes bandwidth)

1TB is nothing

[YellowDragon]

1TB is nothing

says the man with the 35TB server :P

That doesn't really answer my question.

[Hazy125]

I use 30 gigs a month on my phone.... On my home internet, let's just say it's a lot, but I have unlimited

I believe ATTs (And I know.. ATT sucks.. but oh well, can't be picky) download cap is around 150 GB/month, as for personal usage? Idk, never tried checking it. But I'm pretty sure a family of 6 can get pretty close to that at the end of the month. Connection is currently 6mb dl, so about average for our area- And no extra money is spent on streaming like netflix etc.. so that keeps the usage down a lot.

[iris7]

Where I live there is a 250GB cap.  My family uses about 600GB a month.  Most of that bandwidth is used for steam downloads and netflix streams.

Last 30 days I've used 6.8TB though I've been away from home for two weeks so during a normal month it would be a lot more.
