How long will a PAYG 1GB Internet dongle last

[BillyBlue]

Hi Guys
Assuming, i'm watch an encrypted channel 24/7, how long will a 1GB payg usb internet dongle last?
Does anyone have any experience on the actual internet usage ( in MB ) of these boxes?

there is a thread on here about it and gadgetfiend reckons about 10mb a month

when i use 1 just for surfing the net i get a week.

The bandwidth you need is not much, but sometimes just been connected eats it away.

Cheers for the info, although cheaper and easier to get a proper internet connection imo.

Any Fixed internet connection is easily traceable through IP addresses etc (lots of people in the midlands area have already had knocks at the door in connection with satellite CS fraud)
Anonymity is the key mate. PAYG internet dongle is the only way to avoid the hassle as it is virtually untraceable.

Interesting, would seem that it uses a lot less than been connected to a pc. Ie ... my wife 3 dongle uses bandwidth by just been connected with out opening any pages.
