Comcast / Xfinity is our high speed internet provider.

We just started seeing pop up windows when browsing that we have breached 1TB of use within the billing cycle and they need to increase our charges.

They also say 99% of their customers never go above 1TB.

We probably are an average household, 2 kids, wife and me, dog doesn’t count . We are an Apple household, and never had an issue with viruses on their systems.

One thing that occurred to me is I leave the N10 continuously on streaming Tidal 24/7 and that probably contributes quite a bit.

Anyway, not sure if there are any other 1 percenters out there.

It's pretty difficult to hit 1TB. Do you stream a lot of TV? I average about 300GB a month and that's with two people working from home full time. I also let my Lumin stream Tidal 24x7 (same album looped). I guess you must be streaming without using the onboard cache?

It is more the business files and maybe high resolution pictures and document you send. They eat a lot of space. Is your office at home?
