Verizon has a fairly well documented throughput limit of 5GB per month, with
cutoff without notice. Lots of major complaint threads in a lot of places about
that one.

I know a guy who is on a satellite connection with 1GB per month limit, and he
never even comes close. I suspect you aren't close to 5GB per month.

My average use is 15GB per month. I move a lot of files. Hours of use do not
equate to gigabytes of use. As far as dead spots I stand by my assertion of
hundreds of thousands of square miles. Those are areas where few live, and
likely few go, so when someone says they don't run into them I believe them.
Travel choices are highly varied.
