How quickly does the data usage utility log used data. Does it cut off someone when tethered if the limit is reached?
I was recently at the cottage this past week so set my phone as a hotspot in another room and connected with my iPad.
In data usage I had a warning set for 5.2GB used and a hard cap of 5.8GB to pause data. Being it was in the other room I have no idea if or when I got the warning but streaming through netflix on the tethered iPad I blew past the hard limit to 6.7GB used. On the one hand I got to finish my movie, but on the other I went over my plan limit. When I went and checked later that night I did see the warning and my data paused, but it didn't cut me off from tethering like I would expect, at least not right away. Is there a lag to when it will collect and correlate stats to then act on them.
Either way its still better than my carrier who emailed me the next day that I used 75% and then 2 hours later that I used 100% of my data.
