i decided since my router can monitor my bandwidth to keep track of it this month. my ISP hasn't complained yet but i'm curious about what i use. since i started these are the results

i used over 1GB today and all of that was Youtube streaming. i haven't downloaded anything. all of the Videos were HD and i only watched 17 videos none of which were over 10 minutes long.

how can u find this sh1t out?
i had to flash my router with unofficial firmware to get it to track usage. it dumps the daily usage out to a hard drive that's plugged into the router. i know my ISP has a 250GB a month supposed cap but i'm pretty sure i blow through that and they just haven't said anything yet.

Used 26GBs last week. i guess i don't use as much as i thought i did because if that's my average then i probably use a lil over 100GBs a month.

not even 20 per month I am sure. I mostly use my mobile connection for everything and sprint used to outline what I used per month.

how do I do this? without having to mod or download mad shyt :unsure:
if your ISP doesn't provide the stats for you then you'll need to flash DD-WRT or Tomato to your router. in my case someone made custom firmware based off ASUS original that had the ability to.

that being said if your ISP hasn't said anything to you either you're ok or they don't care at the moment.
