Post back after some time has passed and let us know how much your data usage increased.
So I'm in a market that doesn't have data usage billing. The running joke is just how far over the limit I'll go each month. Since you asked, I checked and I'm typically between 6-8TB/mo.
If you don't mind, let us know how your data usage changes anyway. I suspect higher speeds lead to higher data usage. In your case, it doesn't matter.
I don't think this change is really going to impact data usage on my end. I'm not a streamer, at least across the Internet. Most of the processes I have running are non-time sensitive data based traffic which as of this time are not fully utilizing the available Internet pipe. I picked up one of these cards and installed a pair of 1/2.5/5/10G SFP+ modules:
I wouldn't think increased speed would affect streaming unless someone was buffering before the increase in download speed. The amount of data downloaded while streaming shouldn't change with an increase in available download speed. I think your data usage will probably increase, but the amount depends on what your download speed was before you upgraded. It could be an interesting experiment. Just do what you normally do and see if anything changes.
