Hi Shellee621,
I understand that troubleshooting a problem can be frustrating and in our community we like to simply things as best we can. Other than asking for a few speed tests and have you try a couple of different things, we don't need to do anything outrageous.
The amount of data used does not depend on how long something takes to load or download. You may use more data if you have to re-download something all over again, but for the most part this information is cached and isn't technically downloaded again (depending what on the activity). Data usage is just based on the amount of data that actually got used. If your devices are slow and the data is running out, it could very well be a single device on your home network that is eating up bandwidth and slowing down everyone else. Can you give me an idea of the devices you generally have connected to your home network?
Thank you,
Amanda
Hi Amanda,
I have a TV which I hardly watch, a computer, and phone which I hardly use. My main device is a kindle fire. I have to say that i am the only one who lives here and with my previous service i had no issues whatsoever, they were just too expensive.
