I watched some video news Monday, and Tues. a.m. my usage still showed about 900mb. Shut system down. Tues. afternoon when I restarted usage showed 1.9GB! So the usage is being reported in "Batch" mode, NOT realtime. My history is never up to date, always about two days behind. So 2-3 hours of Fox News video used about 1GB. Hugesnet is NOT good for video, too much delay with signal being transmitted thru satellite, modem, router, etc.
