Hi,

 

I had Orange call me tonight offering free broadband and phone calls but the monthly usage is 10GB. Is there anyway I can find out what I'm using a month at the moment? Is there any program that I can use which will keep a tally of my usage?

 

Cheers

there are a few problems out there which will track how much you use.

 

My firewall tracks how much i send etc, firewall name is ashampoo firewall pro, there are other problems out there that will keep a track of it for you

I use "Broadband usage meter 2.0" by Rackeys

 

I tend to use 2-3 GB a month btw, if I dont download any Movies. But I am online a fair amount, general surfing and some gaming.

 

If I do download a Movie Torrent then a full movie is around 600mb (0.7GB)

10 GB is nothing.That's only about 3 films(DVD quality) or one x box 360 game.Depends what you download.

i use NetMeter to track my usage, although i have unlimited usage.

 

depends what you use the net for mate. downloading a bit of music, playing BF2 a fair bit, this that and the other, i'd rack up 5gb, but that's no movies or iPlayer or anything like that

Cheers guys. Installed netmeter and see how I get on. I don't download films at all, just internet, email and a few albums a month

5 of us in our Uni house and our best was nearly 400gb in a month :D

Concuted of Many PC Game downloads, tons of Movies, and Heroes and probably Porn :P

There are two desktop PCs, two laptops, a PS3 and an Xbox 360 running in our house, constantly downloading this, that and everything. Thank goodness for Sky Broadband Max ........... £10 per month unlimited. :D
