Is there a way to put a restriction on the video streaming data

    Make sure the Video Data Server is on. Also, if you stream from Amazon Prime (using their website -- their app doesn't seem to have a way to restrict the video quality), make sure the video quality is set to Good (that uses the least data).   You could also try PlayOn Cloud and download stuff during Bonus Bytes (2 am-7 am) and then play it back offline.
