Hi SteveAL, If you are a Dropbox Plus, Professional, or Business subscriber, your bandwidth limit is 200 GB per day: The total amount of traffic that all of your links and file requests combined can generate. More info - https://www.dropbox.com/help/security/banned-links

Does anyone know how 20 GB download limit calculated across the day?
Is 20 GB limit equals something like 1 GB per hour? Are there any other limits? Per IP-address, for example.
Asking, because
I received Network Connection Error after downloading 20 files 50 MB each (approximetely 1 GB in total). I was downloading the files one after another but not simultaneously
