    Allotted Monthly GB Usage / Over The Top??
    My Daughter just recently upgraded her Rogers Cable box with the NextBox for the TV... I'm not all that clear on just how this NextBox component works, but I understand it uses GB's?. What has my Daughter Baffled since she has a plan for 100gb's per month, lately she has been going over that to averaging 180gb's a month used...

    My Grandson plays a lot of XBox online and the Grandaughter browses a fair amount of YouTube... Previous to adding the NextBox they were averaging between 70 / 80gb's used per month. What other Goodies could be gobbling up the GB's and could the real culprit be in the NextBox itself? Your Thoughts Appreciated... Cheers. Thanks...

    Gb's is a measure of volume of data. 100 gb a month really isn't much. Stream a lot of video online and you can eat through that pretty easy.

    Thankfully my internet connection isn't metered. I go through that much every couple days.

    On its own it shouldn't add anything... its what is done with it that can easily increase those numbers.
