Need 40 gig plan
13 days to go and already have depleted my data. Ugh. Had to do a clean install of Windows, download the updates, download software...argh!
Really need a 40 gig plan. Wouldn't help this month, but for me, 30 is too little and 50 is too much (for the price certainly!)
Wonder how things are going to change when the next sat goes up. Here's hoping Starlink and the LEOs come on line in a year...!

I've often wondered why there is no 40GB plan.

I sat down and figured out the per gig prices they charge.
10 gig plan: 6.00/gig
20 gig plan: 3.50/gig
30 gig plan: 3.33/gig
50 gig plan: 3.00/gig
A 40 gig plan should slot right in there at 3.15/gig or $126/month. ($106/month if you sign up for a two year contract.)
I wonder what Starlink is going to charge per gig.
At the moment, anything is better than ViaSat. In my area, they are charging a laughable $200 for 65 gigs. No bonus period! (I didn't count the bonus period HughesNet has since most people aren't up during that time and so it generally goes unused.)

Holy cow. I think their max speeds are around 12 Mbps too.
