In case you missed the news last month, Comcast is rolling out its 1TB data cap plans to a lot more people in November. If you’re in one of the affected areas, it’s probably a good idea to start monitoring your usage.


As we mentioned previously, Comcast has been trialing data caps of various sizes since 2012, but it seems like the company has finally settled on 1TB to make the raucous angry mob happy. Now they’ve rolled it out to a lot more areas, including the following:

Alabama (Dothan)

California

Colorado

Florida (North Florida, Southwest Florida and West Palm)

Southeastern Georgia

Idaho

Indiana (Indianapolis and Central Indiana; Fort Wayne and Eastern Indiana)

Kansas

Michigan (Grand Rapids/Lansing, Detroit, and Eastern Michigan)

Minnesota

Missouri

New Mexico

Western Ohio

Oregon

Texas (Houston)

Utah

Washington

Wisconsin

That’s on top of anyone who’s already been under the data caps before. If you’re in one of the affected areas, it’s probably a good idea to start tracking your data usage. One of the biggest complaints about Comcast’s data caps is that their trackers are unreliable (I have had my own problems with wildly incorrect data reports before). If you’d rather have your own record, instead of trusting Comcast to do it, check out our guide on how to track your home internet usage here.
