I have satellite internet and I have exceeded my usage this month so I have to watch my download content. For the past couple days we haven't downloaded anything but my usage is not going down. Can anybody tell me if just surfing the internet is using my download usage? I have shut off the automatic updates on my windows and virus protector to help eliminate any download usage. We use facebook and the neopets site daily-is that downloading?|||Nope it is not. I do not know much about satellite connections but if you have a password i would change sounds like someone is using your account|||Rockhead does not know what he is talking about.
Anyway, anything you see do, pics, videos, downloading songs, files, email, etc. uses download bandwidth. If you log on to google, you have downloaded something, if you watch a youtube video, you download the video. You also use Upload bandwidth, but it is much less in amount.
You turned off automatic updates, which is good, since it takes up massive bandwidth. But you must make sure that you download the updates occasionally. I would suggest that you do that during you free usage time, which is usually during the late hours of the night.
Who is your satellite provider? Hughes, wildblue, starband, skyway?
