Solve : satellite internet upload exceeded?

Answer»

The satellite internet service provider I use puts limits on how many MB of upload and download you can use in a 30 day period. The download is 7500MB and upload is 2300MB, they SAY I have exceeded the amount of upload in the 30 day period. I called them and they told me that viewing things like videos and pictures on some sites will do this (in other words I did not get much of a answer). I do not do any web publishing, just normal web surfing and emailing. I use a wireless router at home and three computers for everyone in the house to use, not sure if that WOULD do it.
Trying to understand the upload THING so I can correct it, but without understanding it not sure how to monitor and correct it. If someone can explain this to me it would be greatly appreciated.

Here is your answer. You have 3 machines creating traffic. Your ISP only looks at the total traffic from your account. They don't give you the upload and download limits per machine.

Also what they told you...videos...is also a download limit killer. If each VIDEO is 250 Megs it only takes 4 to add up to a gig.
