AT&T Monthly Data Caps For DSL And U-Verse Starts Today

"Today marks the beginning of AT&T's limited monthly data allotments for subscribers to its DSL and U-Verse broadband Internet services."

These days, it seems everything is connected to the web.  From refrigerators to picture frames and everything in between, all of our new toys require some sort of data connection.  That tie to the web is typically via a wireless link to a router with a DSL, cable, fiber or U-Verse provider.  

If your provider happens to be AT&T, you will now need to keep tabs on your data usage as today marks the first day of AT&T's implementation of monthly data allowances.  If you are a DSL subscriber, your monthly data allowance is 150 GBs.  If you are a U-Verse subscriber, your monthly data allowance is 250 GBs.  Notifications will be given when subscribers reach 65, 90 and 100% of their allowance.  A $10.00 per every 50 GB fee will be assessed if you exceed the data cap more than three times.
