Question About Internet Usage

Howdy All,
Would anyone be able to tell me what kind of bandwidth is used while playing ESO? I have a cap of 250 GB and I am at 97% of that for the month. I am trying to figure out if it is this game that is using so much on my cap or if it is something else. Now I also watch Netflix and I know that can use a lot, but browsing my Usage Monitor from my ISP I can account for the Netflix on it but I have other random events on the list that use anywhere from 1 to 17 gb in an hour.
Appreciate the Help.

✭✭Game should be using less than 50mb/hour. If you have a data cap the two biggest offenders aside the download of game clients are streaming sites(netflix, youtube) and filesharing.0 -
arychuk✭I was thinking maybe someone else gained access to my router, so I have changed my passwords for it. I am hoping no one else had access, but you never know.0

✭✭Yeah if you have wireless, neighbors with the pw can leech. If you have others in the house, start grilling them.1 -
Chatoyancy✭✭✭For ESO, I would say the biggest bandwidth usage would be patch updates, but whether that would use the majority of your bandwidth, I couldn't say.
When I had to worry about bandwidth limits, I used a program called NetLimiter -- www.netlimiter.com. It tells you what programs are using your bandwidth, and you can set bandwidth caps on certain programs as well. Might want to take a look. I think it is a paid program, but you can download a free trial if I remember correctly which should at least show you what is using it all.
