Assuming I play 14 hours a day per month , any estimate of data volume used ? Thanks!


I just googled it and according to some guy in a forum (I'm not allowed to post the link here) it's approx. 8-16 kb per second

Ah thanks. So assuming 16kbps that would be 0.016Mbps = 1Mbp minute = 60 Mbp hour = 922Mbp 16 hours.

Nearly 1 gig a day, 30 gigs a month! I might as well get a fixed subscription plan then

Unlimited cap is the way to go nowadays, I had one prepaid with 3gbit cap long time ago and it wasn't enough even for regular surfing and occassional downloading. And obviously you should choose 4G if you are in the area where that is effective.

Was planning on taking 50 gig over 180 days. The other plan had 40gig for 30 day subscription over 6 months. Wasn't keen on that tho cos my internet use is mostly median. Drops off after a month or two after new ladder.

Does 4G make a difference tho. I assumed D2 was an old game so 3 or 4G shouldn't really matter

Well if it's just for playing D2/MXL I don't think it matters. IIRC 3G can go up to 50 Mbit/s.
