7.25 hours of online video a week (a fraction of the 60 hours Americans
spend watching TV in a week) could end up spending $200 per month on
broadband usage fees.
I searched a little and found that there are some tools you
can use to see how much bandwidth you use. I wondered about
doing this, but I don't think it would be practical for us.
Having something on the router sounds like a better idea.
I tested my TWC link and it is 850kb/sec download. From what
I understand, that means I can download full speed for 13 hours
straight until I run up against the limit of 40gb. My math may
be off, but that sounds like a good bit of throughput.
Can anyone give any practical examples of how much bandwidth
different types of users use in a month? They say they will have
5,10,20, and 40 gb/month caps. I have no gut feeling about how
much this is.
What does an average family use in a month now?
What does a typical VPN user use?
I really don't care about the video downloading since there are
a lot of other ways to get video content through the cable TV,
NetFlix, etc. I don't watch movies anyway.
