Send a blank sms from the sms tool in your router and you will get 3 sms. If you only get 2 then you know it has been depleted. If you have left it would tell you how much you have used from the 50gb

I did this and my router refused to connect after, don't think my tower supports this frequency?

I want to go for this LTE-A Uncapped and replace my 4mbps ADSL.
Is the FUP in this article correct?
I stream Netfilx and Youtube so with Streaming for a couple hours a day.Steam game downloads 24-50gig depending on game and the occasional torrent. I probably currently use just under 100gigs. I've hit my FUP on ADSL once or twice.
So Will I survive on LTE Uncapped? Also is gaming latency going to be an issue or is this a case by case thing where i am going to have to find out when the install it

Only you can decide. Look at your current usage - how many GB's are you going through? Will the 300GB full speed +50GB 4mbps and then balance at 2mbps satisfy your needs?
You're doing it wrong.
Probably.

Antenna are not supposed to work like that. check your connections on the antenna.
I guess I am fine with data, I need to try it and see how my BF4 runs.
Remember to select the external antennas in the router settings.
I've moved it to a higher vantage point and it does to have helped.
That's very poor. lower = better.
I suspect once you attached the antenna it connected you to a different tower. Try moving it around until you get +- -70dBm

When you say lower, you mean closer to 0 (for RSRP- what does that mean anyway)?
Mine is sitting at
RSRP: -101dBm
SINR: 5dB
I'm assuming that's bad?
Ja, thats very k@k
Its your signal strength, i have no idea what it stands for. I was on the PTA Wug for a long time, it was always a mission because they kick you of the network if its anything above -80dBm, so each night i had to twist and turn the antenna to try to get the best possible connection.
My LTE is currently -72dBm. This is also not that good. It should be in the 60's.

Is it possible to have 0 SNR irl?

I would say that and RSRP over -100dBm and SINR lower than 5-8dBm is not ideal and your connection would fluctuate and be slowish.
You know that not everyone will have a tower as their neighbour so aiming for less than 70dBm on you RSRP is unrealistic for most people including me.
Being 1.2km from the tower no line of sight I have RSRP of -93dBm and SINR of 25-30dBm and I get speeds well over 80Mbps.
I would say SINR should be better. Signal quality is important for a stable connection and the speed will come if your SINR is good.
