Right so it seems to run fine with decent ping, just wondering how much data it consumes.
Ive always thought it consumes only a few kb/sec, but just here to clarify as Im not looking to end up with an insane bill.
Hope someone can provide me an accurate answer.

Thanks allready :)

When I worked in security I used to play using my phone's 3G connection (this was before 4G). It didn't use much data, on a 3GB data contract I never went over and spent a good 6 days each week using it on 12 hour shifts.

It might be worth giving it a go for an hour and checking the data used in that time period to get a rough idea.

The data sent to/from server isn't that much, back-in-the-day I had used dongles to connect to games while away, took a few hours of idleness to reach 100 MB and that was with encrypted packets.
It's only really an issue when the signal is trash or you gotta download an update not just containing a new executable but data as well.
