Netmeter Will Check Broadband Usage

You could save money if you subscribe to popular ISP packages which impose a monthly usage limit. Then when this limit is exceeded the user will then be charged different amounts of money, its confusing and leaves internet surfing a constant worry, the rates are usually at a set rate for each extra GB or part of in that month. This limit may be set as low a 2GB which can easily be exceeded on a fast connection.

You may just be curious to know exactly how much bandwidth you are actually using, so that you can change to a cheaper package, stay in control if you want to save money.

There are various programs available to monitor your bandwidth but the one that I came across is NetMeter and available to download, it will check dial-up as well as broadband usage.

NetMeter is a small, customizable network bandwidth monitoring program for Windows 95/98/98SE/ME/NT4/2000/XP
