Data Caps Among Houston ISPs
Many Internet providers have been moving to add data limits onto their home Internet packages as of late. This trend is certainly true for the Houston market, with ISPs like Xfinity featuring plans with data caps. It’s not a large concern for the majority of Internet users, but might affect users who share their plan with family or friends or “power users” who download a lot of high-def content. An HD video stream on Netflix uses around three Gigabytes of data hourly. Standard Definition (SD) video consumes about 1GB/hr.
