Mobile Broadband Software query

[PoochJD]

Hi,

I've finally got Orange Mobile Broadband, with one of their USB Dongles, and I have a monthly 3gb Data Limit. Now, does anyone know if there is any software I can install that will show exactly how much data I am using, and total it up for me, so I can see when I get close to the 3gb limit, as nothing came with the dongle itself?

Thanks.

Don't they have an on-line counter?
You know, one where you have to use bandwidth to see how much bandwidth you've used

Any of the following...

• NetMeter
• BWMeter (I recommend this one)
• DUMeter
• NewLimiter

my vote goes to DU meter, great piece of software. Shows your hourly/daily/weekly/monthly download rates.

Are you sure there isn't a meter included within the software for the dongle?

There used to be for Orange devices, and there is for just about all the other providers offerings..

Hi,

All of the mobile phone providers have an online website calculator that takes an educated guess at what your total weekly or monthly download might be, based on the number of e-mails, MP3's etc uploaded or downloaded are, but I wanted something that would physically tell me how much of the 3gb data limit I've used, each day, so that I don't go over that limit, and incur excessive monthly fees.

Thanks to everyone for their help and suggestions.
