Default Re: Anyone got Sky Broadband!

The term usage limit sounds like the overall use, so it would be including uploads as well as downloads, but I can't be sure on that.

On the subject of data consumed, do you use BBC iPlayer or similar on demand programs, or do any online gaming? Streaming something from BBC iPlayer in HD can easily use over 1GB in an hour... online gaming may use 25-50MB an hour (could be a really poor guess!) depending on if downloads maps or addons and how large the servers you're playing on are etc.

It all adds up rather quickly! O2 broadband standard (8MB download, but only getting about 3MB due to location) here, and use on average 2GB a day.
