The amount of data that your CloudVPN router uses is dependent on how much you use your CloudVPN router. This article gives you some basic considerations for your CloudVPN routers data usage.
General Data Usage

Additional data usage
Use of the CloudVPN router, like pushing new configurations, upgrading firmware, using the HTTP or VNC service, establishing a VPN connection and downloading a new project to your machine, or other actions over the VPN connection, will result in additional data usage.
How much additional data is used depends on what you are using the VPN connection for. Making a configuration change will result in a very different amount of data usage than streaming HD video to monitor your machine performance.
Test your usage
You can test your data usage by using your CloudVPN router as intended for a week and checking to see how much data you used in the Usage tab of the CloudVPN Portal Admin app.
Note that this only includes data over the VPN connection and use of the HTTP and VNC service.Data usage for Cloud Logging
When you use Cloud Logging, your CloudVPN router will use additional data. How much additional data your CloudVPN router uses highly varies depending on your configuration. The table below only serves as a rough estimate. Details about contributing factors can be found below the table.
Variables | Interval | Datapoints | Data usage |
20 | 72,0 sec. | 1.000 dps/hr | 100 MB per month |
20 | 14,4 sec. | 5.000 dps/hr | 200 MB per month |
20 | 3,6 sec. | 20.000 dps/hr | 600 MB per month |
Your actual data usage is highly dependent on the amount of datapoints per hour you are logging (more dps/hr is more data usage), the amount of data variables you are logging (more variables is more data usage), the logging time interval(s) (shorter intervals is more data usage), and if you are logging data at different varying time intervals (more different intervals is more data usage).
