How much DATA do you use a month - Banter. - Jun 11, 2019

On a monthly basis how much data would u naturally use on your computer, or are you still in the stone age having a certain amount of date you can use a month on your internet plan Ā šŸ˜ ?

within Last 30 days on just my computer - 345GB Ā 

If you dont know how to check that

Bottom right-hand corner > Right click into network settings > Data usage

Wow man 345g is insane! I do about 15gb of mobile data or a little less as for my pc haven't checked that lately but maybe around 30gb since I stream on it the most

I think my Internet plan has a 700gb data cap. They did back in 2015 when I first upgraded to the fibre optic plan but I don't know if there still is a data cap.
Anyway I've used 325gb in the last 30 days just on my pc.


RE: How much DATA do you use a month - Bossk - Jun 11, 2019

181.84 GB

Would have to count in my phone and hackintosh too.

Do you download a lot?

I strictly game/browse on my PC and have 144 GB used last 30 days. I use another 12 GB a month on phone.

My Web browser uses 82gb alone. I guess most of that is youtube. I download a fair bit but not that often tbh, it just adds up over time haha. I like having a local collection rather than streaming because streaming is too unreliable for me. My own Emby server is like netflix but better because it has your own collection. None of what I watch is on netflix, and most of the anime I watch isn't available on streaming services so downloading is a good alternative if one of the piracy sites decides to stop working (which happens all the time).


Oh, and I've used 64gb on my phone (on home Internet) and 16 on my mobile data.

Well I guess there is a reason that uncapped data exists, some people can consume several terabytes of data a month, or even more if their internet speed it good enough.

With a measley 35 megabit connection, you could download over 10 terabytes of data. (Source)
Of course, many people have 200 megabits and beyond. Some have above 1gigabit.
Considering this, I wouldn't say that 350gb is a lot with today's internet.

I watch a lot of streams, host a local vpn, and a db storage I access from my laptop when out and about.
On my phone, I just watch a shit ton of Youtube.


RE: How much DATA do you use a month - Brendan - Jun 11, 2019

About 14GB for my laptop. I haven't been using it much lately since I've been working a lot.
