Multiple devices demand more bandwidth. If you're planning to stream 4K video content and have multiple devices connecting to your network simultaneously, seriously consider investing in faster download speeds, like 1000 Mbps, which should work for most users and with unlimited data allowance.
Internet data usage is the amount of data (in bytes, kilobytes, megabytes or gigabytes) transferred between your computer and the Internet in a given period of time. Data is transferred two ways: from the Internet network to your computer (download) or from your computer to the Internet (upload).
We recommend to get a plan that includes unlimited data. If you do streaming content, the best plans for you to chose are Internet 1000 Mbps with Unlimited Usage Allowance and a Xumo Stream Box included. For $65.00 per month, you get download speeds of up to 1000 Mbps and upload speeds of up to 50 Mbps, along with a unlimited usage allowance. In contrast, the Internet 300 plan at $50.00 per month offers only up to 300 Mbps download speed, 20 Mbps upload speed.
Examples:
Uses similar amounts of uploaded and downloaded data so you can see others while they see you. The actual amount used is determined by camera resolution and available bandwidth.
Using webcam during meetings or learn-from-home activities (Teams, Zoom, Skype, FaceTime, etc).
When estimating general browsing, do not include time spent on social media, music streaming, video streaming, or online gaming sites.
Searching, shopping, reading news, banking, emailing, etc.
Actual data usage depends on video quality. Lower quality videos, such as 480p or 720p, consume less data than higher resolution videos such as 1080p or 4K resolution.
Watching online video content (Netflix, YouTube, Hulu, Amazon, HBO, MAX, Disney, etc.)
Higher quality streaming will result in more data usage than lower quality streaming.
Listening to online music (Pandora, Spotify, Apple Music, etc.)
Watching and/or posting photos and videos on social media sites will consume more data than just browsing or posting text content.
Browsing and posting to social media sites (Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, Reddit, etc.)
The majority of data usage comes from updates (also called patches) and downloadable content.
Playing online or app-based games (Xbox, Playstation, Steam, etc.)
Larger game files will use more data than smaller game files.
Searching, shopping, reading news, banking, emailing, etc.
Monitoring home security services over your in-home WiFi network, and security cameras accessed over the web, use data. Usage varies by device, quality, and extent of use (24/7 vs. motion-detection.) Devices that are recording but not web-enabled will not affect data usage.
Running and monitoring cloud-based security systems (Nest Cam, Dropcam, Arlo Pro, etc.)
