Just while Im on the subject, you may beable to help me a little further here! I do quite a bit of online gaming but Ive always had unlimited usage so never had any issues, Ive no idea how much usage my gaming takes up, any idea how I can easily find out? (just im limited to 120gb on Plusnet)

Gaming generally does not take up much.

You could load your PC with NetMeter or tbbMeter and measure it.

Ill give it a try, its gonna take at least 3 weeks for the engineer to come to my house to get my new socket in, so I have plenty of time to test!

thanks for all your help guys, sorted me right out!

Gaming itself uses very little allowance. It's the downloading of the games and updates to them that uses a fair bit, but I'm not a gamer myself so have no actual figures.

Note that on Plusnet there is an unlimited period overnight that you could use for those downloads if you found the 120GB was dodgy.

Have you any idea of how much you use at the moment?

What you do need is the Pro option for gaming! This traffic management applies to Fibre as well as ADSLx, as it is internal to the Plusnet network, and this page gives details of the speed caps.

If you allow 10 Kilo Bytes per second?

Or 360 MB / hour of play, you can figure out how many hours you have. In practice likely to be lower, as above allows for some voice traffic, e.g. in game chat
