    I have tethered off my phone during my lunch hour at work. Just doing ocmp5 or surveys that aren't graphic intensive I go through about 100mb in 30-40 minutes.

    Most of the data usage is stuff that isn't related to turk. Set the connection to 'metered connection' in windows and turn off the gifs and shit on the forums.

    Try to skip HITs with videos and high res pics like C-SATs and PFAs. And yes, make sure you are not loading gifs and stuff on here. I've found the data goes a bit slower than I thought it would as long as I'm not doing the video/high res image HITs. Very doable when avoiding those.

    And this is why data caps are dumb. 5gb of data is nothing.

    I don't have many tips myself, I just limited what I had open and didn't do video related HITs. This was back when Keiths dropped a ton so I just did a lot of those and CIs until I had internet. I did Jams okay, but there was a bit of lag (cuz Tmobile switches you to slow-ass data once you use up your high speed).

    I had something weird happening with that JLO script. I had two JLOs, and I did the first one with no problems. After doing the second one, it loaded another JLO when I submitted so I figured hot diggity damn, I caught 3. I busted through that one real quick, and went to work. When I got to work I saw I had ANOTHER jlo with 17 minutes to go.

    Today's my lucky day I figure, and I did that one. Then I start my real work, catch a few things and look at my queue and I see a JLO with 6 minutes... I then looked at my submitted hits for the day and there was just one JLO. I tried from remote desktop to complete it again (with the script) and nada. So with 4 minutes to go I clicked through it on the work computer (no script) and successfully submitted it.

    No idea what went on there...

    Logged into both www & worker on the same profile from the TV PC
    Not logged into worker on the work PC

    Would be my shot in the dark guess.
