For shit Comcast it is 1TB which is ridiculously low.
Then they also completely lie to your face about your metrics to make it look like you are always constantly almost at the 1TB cap.
My mom in America just had xfinity installed last fall at her house. She barely uses the internet besides web shopping, articles, and some Netflix. Every month she was somehow at 950-980GB. New WiFi password so there isn’t an intrusion, her computer was fine, there is no way she is using that much. Comcast just lies to your face to higher data caps. Data caps for internet should be illegal as it is.
There’s not a “cap” but beyond 1.2TB you will get moved to low priority on your cell tower, so if there’s any network congestion your internet will go to shit.
I’ve never ran into this issue since I live in a sweet spot thats close to a tower and doesn’t have any high occupancy buildings or heavy road traffic that would cause congestion.
Iirc tmo has 2 tiers. One with a smallish cap and one that throttles based on tower capacity when you hit something like 30 or 50tb. I had the 30 day trial and I’ve considered getting it as a backup to our cable internet, I’ve held off because most of the time if the cable is out, it’s a bigger issue like a power outage that also eventually takes down the towers as well, plus I think where we are there is only one tower that we connect to and when it goes down we switch to another much further away with barely any signal.
I have spectrum gigabit down and they cap us at like 35 up. I’m watching and waiting while 3 companies aside from spectrum and att rollout fiber all over town. I’m hoping that eventually they get to us. We live in the outskirts and one of the companies expanded south from north of us so I have reason to hope they get to us eventually.
What’s the data cap?

I agree; data caps should not be a thing.
