Why does DVR content count against my data quota?
A cording to the app, when I watch DVR content, my box is using data.
That doesn't seem right.

Hi @Scottws
Because DVR content is either coming from the Cloud or is saved locally on your DVR, it will not affect your data usage. Here is a link that will show you the types of content that will affect your data usage: www.cox.com/.../how-online-activities-impact-data-usage.html

So when the wifi app shows this data usage, I'm not actually using data? This is from yesterday. I caught up on DVR'd programming. The app says that's 27% of my daily usage over the past 24 hours. At least that's how it looks to me.
Pretty sure I didn't use 84Gig in one day on my other devices.
- Hi @Scottws,
When you log in to the Cox website and use the Data Usage Meter what do you see there for using on that day?
Thank you,

Cox Support Forums Moderator Any more info as to why the app says watching tv is charged against my data?
- Hi @Scottws
The screenshots of Network Activity on the Panoramic App are different than the actual Data Usage limit that you have every month. You're DVR and cable boxes do not count against your monthly Data Limit.
