It would take a reasonable amount of time to reach the 500 GB limit. Currently, three PCs combined with YouTube and Netflix via Dish Hopper are handling it. No major concerns there since we avoid sports content.

It relies completely on the internet speed you have. You can check the available bandwidth and use a tool to see how long it would take to go over 500G.

It seems you were well below the limit last month. The exact outcome depends on the transfer rate. With a 10 Mbit stream running continuously, it would take around 113.78 hours.

We're currently at 25 Meg and... the traffic gauge hasn't been active much this month.

Using the link at its maximum 24Mbit/s would require around 50 hours to achieve 500G. Clearly, the connection doesn’t run at full capacity continuously—always steer clear of broadband plans with restricted bandwidth. I recommend switching to an unlimited plan, especially if your ISP charges extra when you surpass the 500G monthly cap; otherwise, usage limits can lead to unexpected high bills.

Spectrum isn't too far away—just a couple of miles. We live in an area with just two channels, and the other side has its own limits. I hope Spectrum would have taken over those competitors... We're not really big fans of watching TV.

You're stuck with a 1TB plan from Comcast. My suggestion is to upgrade to an OTA antenna, which is what we did. We typically use around 700 Gbps monthly with three people. You also get two ISPs—AT&T only managed about 6 Mbps DSL in your area and stopped serving you, leaving Comcast as the only option.
