Mainly a question to any Direct TV internet users, I’m trying to find out if there is a data limit or cap with this provider? If there is does that mean the internet is cut off (offline) till the next cycle of billing?

Googled over the last couple days and I could not find specific data bout this, even on their site. Guildies I’ve talked to don’t have it and use other means of a provider. 10 years ago didn’t have to worry bout data plans but this day an age seems to be a price on it now.

I know some are gonna say to just call the provider but personal experiences would also help before do sign up with them or someone else.

Thanks

I’m not sure how much of a response you’re going to get. I would just call them and see what they say. The worst that can happen is that you find out the truth and its not a truth you wanted. You can also threaten to leave their service unless the limit (if it exists) is extended or removed entirely.

Fair enough, that will be what I’ll end up doing.

Most of the time non mobile data connections are soft capped and are quite generous. I have comcast with 4 pc’s 2 tablets, 3 smart phones, 2 smart tv’s and game consoles running off a 50mb connection. Lots of media streaming and gaming along with large non torrent upload and downloads. I’ve never seen a bill for exceeding a cap although I’m sure there is one. Basically the caps exist to prevent abuse and heavy torrent traffic but should be more than adequate for the average family.
