That’s a good amount of data use, but if you have 4k TVs with 4k streaming plans, download a lot of games or movies, or work in sound/video editing that amount of data is completely reasonable. 5 years ago, 10 years ago… maybe it was a lot. It’s not anymore. You can use that without even thinking about it just by using modern devices and services.

My family of 5 went from 1TB a month 10-5 years ago to about 3TB a month in the past 9. Some much higher too, but around there. We don’t try to use more or less, ever. We just use it.

Yeah man I got you. Go to your local community college and take a course on IP networking. Then if you want to go deeper take some courses on physics and RF.

But yeah… a modem is a modulator demodulator. It modulates an IP stream into RF over whatever medium the modem is made for (Coax, fiber, copper, satellite, etc.). And back. The rest is just IP networking.
