How do I slow down my bandwidth usage?
I have a new MacBook Pro. I also unfortunately have Hughes.Net satellite connection for internet as it is the only choice here in our rural town. The first day I used the MacBook Pro, all my bandwidth allowance for 24 hours was eaten through in 20 minutes. I have tried everything, including disabling icloud, eliminating my email accounts, and notifications, and it continues to drain away. I spent time with customer support and did everything they told me and still it is draining away unless I turn off the wireless connection and then cannot be online. I am about ready to return the MacBook Pro, which is a shame, but my PC notebook does not do this, although otherwsie, it is inferior in every other to the Mac. Can anyone put there help me?
Thanks
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X El Capitan (10.11.1)
