The amount of data varies, and is usually pretty small.  For your purposes, use 10KBytes/minute.  As long as there are no other downloads, such as skins, terrains, or other game content, then should cover you.

Thanks Roy I read your email.

I will download all maps and skins from the website and put them on my computer

1024 kilobytes = 1 megabyte. That's roughly17 hours of game Time.

I will post how it works for everyone to refrence in the future.

Ive been running off the 4G LTE for about 2 years now. It runs everything just fine. Granted, it always seems like i need more data  :headscratch:

I recommend using the Data Calculator to try a figure up your data.

Mine is 3g, it looks like a usb thumb drive. I think my limit is 5gb, and I don't get close unless downloading lots of video or a giant game.

I had to get an external antenna to make mine usable. It's running out the window to the railing of the 2nd story porch. The 10" thick solid wood walls of my log house seem to insulate the cell signal, phones too.

I don't use the Verizon connection software. It wants you to use their program to connect but you don't have to, at least with mine.
