How much bandwidth does DayZ take up per hour?

[Brother Hao 28]

Hello, friends, countrymen and bandits.

I've recently moved out of my parents house to study at a college in another city. I brought my PC with me to help me with my schoolwork and to play some games when there's nothing else going on (which is pretty often). I've tried to play DayZ on the school's wifi before (our school doesn't offer ethernet connections), but that didn't turn out too well, as you'd expect from school wifi. So I've been considering using my phone as a wifi hotspot to help me play DayZ. I don't want to play too much on my phone's data before I know how much data it generally consumes per hour. Does anyone have any info on it? Thanks in advance!

I ain't an expert, but I believe online video games primarily use upload as opposed to download. You can do a speedtest through google to see how fast your connection is. but in terms of volume I think video games would be relatively minimal.
