<div class="bbWrapper">I have cox in Phx, and my cap is 500gb. That&#039;s $63 plan. Last time I called(May?), they said their top plan is 1Tb. Granted, this is all from the CS and Tech reps, they have consistently given the same info over the last 2 years, so I tend to beleive them. Also, not sure I could even reach that 400gb in my home with 1Gbps.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Its pretty easy to reach depending on how much you stream. When I am at our Condo in Vegas I can use about 20GB a day with the Sling uploading from my 722 in Oklahoma.I have the 50M/10M $65 Cox plan at both homes and my cap is 300GB. I topped it a few times when the cap was 250GB on the 25MB/2Mb plan. I use a vpn and watch quite a bit of UK, Australian, Irish and Canadian TV too</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">I don&#039;t do a lot of slinging or anything. YouTube occassionally, usually though it&#039;s the dish on demand that&#039;s downloading. I think I average maybe 100 gb on a heavy usuage month</div>
