1 TB data cap limit AT&T
hello i am moving to bay area and got AT&T internet. they have a 1 TB data cap per month. is that enough. i usually use my internet for general browsing / downloads and watching youtube and movies on my 4k TV / updating apps on my phone etc. i have never had data caps before so i am not sure how much i usually use.
How many people in your household? Or more specifically, how many devices connected to your Wi-Fi? For a regular couple household with your regular electronics like TV, phones, laptop, iPad, 1 TB is more than enough. It also depends how much you stream... If your house is empty in working hours because everyone is at work, you won't have much usage even if you stream crazy after you reach home. It averages out.
Internet in the Bay Area has data caps? Damn.
Isn’t it stupid. Home of IT has data caps.
xfinity also has a 1TB cap. Then they charge $10 per GB. Fuckers charge $55 for 100 Mbps plan and $50 for a 25 Mbps one. We need ISPs like starry to come to the bay area to break this att and comcast mafia.
They have monopolies. I’m not sure if anyone can do anything about it. We just have to suck it up and pay
They have monopoly on cable poles. We need wireless isp like starry in Boston.
I haven't read the other comments yet but when I cancelled my service with them, they advised they have a plan with faster speeds and no data cap for more money
They did that? I have a contract with them for a year. And there is a contract breaking penalty.
I had no contract
Why not just get a better isp? Webpass? Sonic? Wave?
I live in Bay area and haven't found options other than Comcast
I have 3 roommates and we all regularly watch YouTube videos and stream. We usually hit about 1.2 TB per month. You should be fine if you are only downloading videos you are actually watching. If you are constantly torrenting in the background, well then you will hit the came in no time.
