are you on a data limited network where you only have so many gb a month or are you just asking about how much bandwidth Mbps it will use. cellular will limit based on gb usage, and yes it will eat up your gb limit streaming video, itll do it faster or slower depending on quality of video you select (more data in hd then sd). as for bandwidth, most cable, dsl providers limit bandwidth and you get up to so many mbps... you dont run out but having multiple devises actively online at the same time will slow down your connection as you are dividng the mbps to each. basic cable speed where im at is 60mbps, and it works fine even with a couple cellphones on the same wifi. when it was at 20 or less (my router was slowing it down) it would occasionally buffer
