bimmer boy 21 Report post Posted September 28, 2011 So I just have a quick question in regards to WiFi etc. I'm not so savvy with all things technology and internet. But I have been streaming movies etc over my home WiFi from my Laptop to my iPad. What I am wanting to know does streaming the videos from one location in my house to another via two devices count towards my internet data usage?

huff3r 347 Report post Posted September 28, 2011 Nope, it shouldnt do as it is going directly from your Laptop to your iPad, it shouldnt be going anywhere near the internets so shouldnt have any affect at all. Unless your streaming through a server somewhere else haha. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bimmer boy 21 Report post Posted September 28, 2011 Well I just stream it through Air Video which is just an app I downloaded on my laptop then the one on the iPad so they find each other. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However one way to find out is to disconnect your router from your phone line jack (therefore disconnecting yourself from the internet, but still operating your home/WiFi network) and see if it still works Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
