How much data does a player client use per hour?

I am looking to get internet from a cellular network, and the best that I can get for my budget allows me to use 2 gb of data a month. I am interested if it is low enough for me to play this game occasionally while away from home.

Okay, I tried measuring it myself, and I found that AoS uses about 30 megabytes on download, and 10 megabytes on upload. If I understand this correctly, I could play AoS on my 2 gb data plan for approximately 50 hours a month. That is 1.6 hours a day.

It's not an efficient way of running a server.

What's your weekly budget? Servers could go as low as 10$/month.

I guess instead of running it every day, run it every weekend? That way you could assure that more people would come to your server AND that you could run the server for a longer time. Using your measurements, you could run a server for 5 hours during Saturdays and Sundays every week, or ten hours on Saturdays if you really want to.

I really meant how much data does a player in a server generate. I wanted to see how many hours per day I could play AoS on a 2 gb data plan. Running a server on such as device is insane. It would take 2 hours to use all of the data.
