Question
Bee Glasswing
im being switched after almost 4 years in sl from an unlimited internet plan to a plan that allows a total of 4 G a month. im use to spending as much time as I want inworld. does anyone have any idea how long in sl it takes to use a G? a friend of mine said he ran his laptop off his android while house sitting last weekend and 8 hours in sl used 1 gig. any other ideas on this? appreciate you help, bee
in response to the answer below, its not a smart phone, its an internet plan that allows 4 g's of download a month (much like a phone). ive always had unlimited plans and this appears to be the new wave of ways to make more money, setting download limits on internet plans. but thanks for your answer :)
and yes, g refers to gb of course. you are allowed 4 g a month of download, when you go over they charge you more money. so as I said above, my friend said 8 hours of sl used 1 g, im hoping someone will say that's wrong lol, that would allow me around 32 hours of sl a month and as I run a gallery, host events etc, that would be a nightmare. :)
thanks to all that answered :) Linden's response was to contact my ISP, which was useless. you would think they would have a ballpark figure, I realize there are variables, pref settings, auto play media, cache etc, but you think there would be a ballpark figure. from the response to my question here and on FB, it appears im not the only one that has wondered. thanks again to all :)
