Your internet usage is almost same with me, my internet usage is equal to 2-4 GB. Unless i've connected to a public wifi, i will use more GBs :p

55GB limit from ISP, otherwise I'd love to download anything and enable auto updates. With these limits, I need to reuse download packages from one PC to another thereby saving several Gigs of redundant updates for both Linux and Windows. Only thing that consumes extra bandwidth are Mobile OSes.

More and more I wish I had better internet.

I had a 1000/1000 up until last month. Then I realized I was not really seeing any benefit from that speed. Considering 1000/1000 is often more realistically actually 800/800-900/900 depending, with some spikes higher. Long story short, one finds a significant portion of gear in their home won't even utilize it and that you can't really saturate over 50% of that, I decided it wasn't worth it.

I dropped to 700/700, tested that for a few weeks. Then dropped to 500/500 tier where I am at now. That's the sweetspot for me, enough speed so 5+ people can't saturate it and fast enough to download giant PC games in under 5 minutes. It also saved me $100.00 a month compared to the 1000/1000. 1000Mbps is sort of a waste and overrated. While you can push wire speed through top end AP's, it's highly dependent on the device. Most of my notebooks capped out at 300Mbps, some capped at 150Mbps. VOIP NIC is 100Mbps. Tivo NIC's are 100Mbps, PS2, PS4 and Wii NICs are 100Mbps, all of the IoT I have is 100Mbps.

Anyway, long story short, I am finding 500Mbps to be vastly sufficient.. We'd rarely using over 60-70% of that during peak.

VERY fortunate to have amazing infrastructure around here.

FIOS, Comcast GB, Comcast 2G, Lightspeed, RocketFiber, WideopenWest, WideopenWest Gigtopia. AT&T just contacted me last night, they're running AT&T 1000Mbps fiber behind my home today. They said $80 a month for Guaranteed 940Mbps or higher.

So that's yet ANOTHER option...

...I have no idea: my provider doesn't provide any data about my (personal) data consumption... :) ...
My connection is unlimited. I'm reading a lot stuff on the internet, i'm frequently using spotify (music streaming service)
and of course i'm a gamer (mostly F2P games)..... so i guess maybe 100 GB..., 200 GB.... per month... ???
...i dont really have an idea about my monthly traffic... :) :D
