That has been enough for me, but could increase to 100GB of data $90 per month if needed. I run my house off of it (added a really good mesh router to better distribute the WiFi throughout the house as it is quite large). The modem/box itself was a bit pricey though...but worth it to me as there were really no other acceptable options. I ran a similar 4G box prior to that...and it was ok, but not nearly as fast as the 5G box (even receiving 4G).

I'm using a commercial 4G SOHO router myself. I'd like to add a better antenna, but 4x4 MIMO cell antennas are expensive, and I get reasonable service with the standard small paddle antennas.
