Heh, anyone even coming close to this?

Oct 8gb
Nov 8gb

I feel like I should open up nasatv or some similar live stream and
just let it run 24/7.

Yes, but I canceled cable TV from Comcast and watch a lot of streaming
stuff now. Before that, I was a lot less.

Yes. I watch netflix movies. Only takes 3-4 to reach those numbers.

This may have been answered before: has the download stats display been
implemented for the Houston area so one can see their stats on the
Comcast web site and, if so, where might those stats be found?
Thanks

I'm lost... I've gone to look for myself.
If I should return before I get back, keep me here.

I had to go to Customer Central and then Users and Settings.

The usage for the last 3 months ranged from 13 to 23. I hadn't checked
in a while. For some reason, it was 150 or more every month earlier
last year but I have no idea why there is such a big difference.

Eep! I used 332 GB last October, about half that the months
following. Think it was the Mystery Science Theater 3000 flood...

Comcast didn't yell at me or tell me I need to get a life, even if
they had valid reason to.

Yeesh.

What, if any, is the limit on "commercial" accounts?
