So i have asked these questions TWICE with 1 answer to part one (wasn't a good  answer though so if you  have one please say) and none to part 2 and i need one before the end of the month!  So here are my questions

 

First question, how much bandwidth will one hour of gaming take.  I know this varies between games but say an fps with voice communication.

 

Second question: Does it take broadband to download things between other computers on the network?  So if I connected 2 computers to one Wi-Fi network (so the broadband being used never leaves the home) does it take some of the limited internet to transfer the data?

Everything that happens in you home network, stays in your local network. When I load data off my nas, it doesn't now even show up on my internet use. Where do you life? Most ISP offer internet with no data cap.

So then it wont take my limited bandwidth? Also the internet where i my dad lives (im asking this for him) is a monopoly!  They charge $99/M for 10D/3U 30Gb.  Bright house is across the street but wont come here he lives.

 

1:i honestly dont know

2:Most likely as your sending from one and reciving from another

So then it wont take my limited bandwith?

1. very low

That doen's help  :mellow: 

2. don't understand "so the broadband being used never leaves the home"... You can transfer data form one pc to another over WiFi even if there is no internet connection.

So to transfer a 2Gb video from one computer to another over the same WiFi that won't take 2 Gb of the monthly internet cap?

1. It wont eat all of your limited bandwith. As you said it depends from game to game and is hard to measure.

2. it wont.

Both are Myakka Tech and Bright house are wired.  The driveways here are almost a mile long so bright house won't come to us.

You could offer then to run the cable yourself from your house to your drive way.

We tried everything.  This is (almost) a  quote of what they said.

 

After looking into this matter our investors have decided that providing a internet to you and your household would be an unworthy investment on our part, we apologize for this inconvenience.

My dad's friend is best friends with the CEO of Myakka Tech, he found  out that basically they pay bright house to not give us internet -_-

wow, that sound illegal. If your dad is friends with the CEO, then he should tell Myakakaka to stop being a dick and give you guys a normal contract. A 30gb cap in todays world is just ridiculous.
