When you have exhausted your data, your speeds will throttle back to as low as 1Mbps or lower during peak congestion hours.
With that said, I personally have found that if no one else is doing anything, at all, even loading another web-site, you can stream in SD just fine once you have exhausted your data. The question now is whether your beam and gateway is more, or less congested than mine.

I was hopping for a little better but never figured it would work for streaming. I just wish Hughes would allow use the run at the 1MB and if we did freeze our GB usage until we chose to run full speed. Like a self imposed throttling. I really have not need to stream everyday but this coming month for example I would like to watch the World cup games Brazil is in. With no streaming I usually run out with the 10GM a few days before the end of the month. I do do some Youtube Music videos. Low quality but still eat away at the day cap.
