Hi guys.

I want to know that if i have a 3g wireless broadband which is capped at 75gb/month would i be using up my 75gb data limit while browsing web pages,live streaming videos, watching videos on youtube . or is this limit just for pure downloading like downloading files and using torrent ?. And is 75gb enough if i do a lot of online gaming and use internet like 10 hours a day and download files via torrent ? . Any help would be appreciated THANKS..

Hello i have an unlimited 3G data plan myself and do everything through it apart from gaming. i'm always on youtube or downloading new steam games. and average around 110GB usage every month. But sadly i find it to unstable for gaming :'( i find i get a lot off drop outs when using 3G. But this also could come down to where i live (in the UK).

Personally if your going to do all your stated above then you want a higher usage limit/ No limit or to use a normally cable internet connection. speeds should be better and more reliable. again this is from my experience in the UK
If you are not connected to wireless internet any thing you do which requires data; internet, video streaming etc... will use your 75GB/month amount. 75GB is quite a bit and you shouldn't even get close to using it all if you just stream youtube videos every now and then and cruise the internet. If you start streaming movies and torrenting it's possible you can use it all but only you will know how much you are using. There should be either a native app or setting which tells you how much you have used or their might be a third party app that will give you this information.
