P99 on a hotspot
 

So during August for a few weeks ill be forced to be gaming on a hotspot for 15 days and I only have a 5GB plan. If I played a few hours of p99 a month how fast do you think id max out 5 gigs? Any info would be appreciated

Everquest was meant for dial-up, should take you a while to burn through that 5GB if you are only transferring Everquest data packets and not wasting it on pr0n or Vent.

You could play quite a bit in those 15 days and probably not even come close.

Yeah you should be fine. i doubt you would even go over 1gb of usage unless there was a big patch to download(is that even possible for p99? :))

I play pretty regularly using my hotspot with my laptop (~75% of the time), and my data usage is at around 500-600mb. You should be safe.

I have a data tracker on my phone and I have bluetoothed my phone's internet to my comp when I had none on a trip. Played for almost 4 hours and used maybe 100mb. You will be fine.

I played on my phone's hotspot the other night. I'd just recommend to not quad kite on it. My spells seemed delayed by just a second.

Depending on your carrier (Verizon is mine) you can set a data usage alter in case you start creeping up on your limit.

From hot-spot experience... You should be totally fine. It will also be fast enough to be lag-free. Aside from when you receive a call or text... Text lagged me, calls LD me.

It's not bad. Just be careful of web browsing while alt-tabbed as this can use a lot of data. There is a slight lag when doing spell casting etc, but it's not too bad on 4G where I am. I will say though, I think you need to be careful about doing anything in Trakanon's Teeth when on a hotspot. That zone can cause problems if you're not on a great comp or connection.

As of about an hour ago I can totally confirm this.
