Yeah I use Net Meter too, http://readerror.gmxhome.de/


You can also set it to alert you once you have reached your maximum amount that you specify.

I think it's gotta be the DuMeter due to the fact it gives you a daily / weekly and monthly report on the up and down as well as totals thats real easy to follow..

It also gives you a prediction of possible future usage IF you are going over the top on any one day..Worse than my mother for nagging. ;)

I use DU meter. The trouble is these monitoring apps also include internal network bandwidth via your router. So if you copy alot of data between PC's like I do, you don't know your real bandwidth.

Is there a BW monitor that can tell you how much you've downloaded for this past year, the reason i ask is that on the dec 12th i seemed to have downloaded more than 73.76 GB (NET Traffic Meter), now i know that can't be right as this pc was in store getting a new mother board and chipset (other one fried) however i did connect it up to xbox live.

I'm confused as hell as to how this got so high, and no one else was in the house at the time.

Well it can't make the data up out of nothing, but I assume you know that already :P
DU meter is great, SNMP monitoring of the cable modem was better, but NTL have stopped that now :(

You can set bwmpro to display anything you want in the system tray and log everything with the history. Is logging turned on? http://www.bandwidthmonitorpro.com/i...3/setting4.gif

Right click on the system tray icon to check history, then click the yearly tab. If that doesn't work then maybe you need to reboot before it logs it in as yearly.
