    Ok, so if anyone could help me out with this it would be great.

    I have a WD TV Live media player connected to my Home Network and i watch movies through this connection Does it use any Data while i watch movies/tv shows? Just asking because I'm on a 100GB plan per month and don't want to waste my data.

    Once your not watching it outside the network no broadband data will be used

    Do you connect a hard disk to your media player? Make sure it's formatted to FAT32 as some media players may not recognise NTFS/HFS file systems
