AS the month of march comes to a close, and everyone expected and got the mid month topup, lets see how much everyone has used. Here's mine (for now)

5GB Package + VAS
Total usage: 11323.09 MB
After hours: 45257.77 MB

About R12/GB (rounded up). Not bad for wireless mobile internet.

5GB package
VAS 128 for uncapped always full speed between 00:00 and 08:00

Signal strength 92%
Error rate < 5%

Average speed during the day: about 0.3Mbps*
Average speed during uncapped afterhours: about 0.7Mbps, slows down back to about 0.4 after 6am though.*

If I can get my error rates down I think the daytime can go up to 0.5Mbps and the after hours uncapped at 0.9Mbps

*Based on Steam downloads

Well, I have 2 modems, one for my steam stuff and the other is used by the rest of the family for their own needs, I can say that this month has been about 25GB on steam for me (metro 2033, homefront, darksiders, mafia 2). As for the other 20GB, I have no idea what they are downloading.
 
Wowza I can only get like 30GB of movie-... I mean downloads a month ;)
 
somehow i got a little bit over kill this month. Almost doubled my normal average.
