We provide a variety of tools, such as the Data Usage Meter and the Data Usage Calculator, to help manage data usage. Streaming video typically accounts for the highest data usage. Additionally, many apps or programs can continue to run in the background and use up data even if they're not in use. Please make sure all devices' operating systems are up-to-date with the latest software and are also free of any malware or viruses. Malware and viruses can also use up data without your knowledge. -Kevin M.

- Zurq, it's quite possible that devices in the home are running in the background, thereby using up data. -Kevin M. Cox Support Forum Moderator
