I've just had a few games of Desert Combat (the BF1942 Mod) - I reset
netmeter before starting and it's showing 46.13MB download & 13.34MB Upload
- not a huge amount, but more than casual web-browsing.

Hi,

There was a post on our forums a while back from someone that suggested
they used on average around 30MB per hour.

With Regards,

Dave,
