Thread: 8ta data running out on its own...

  1. #1

    Unhappy 8ta data running out on its own...

    Hey, yesterday i purchased the 60+60gig 8ta special.

    my data seems to be running out quite quickly, I'm down 700mb already.
    is there a way to manage my data usage? and or observe which sites or applications are using my data.
    I can see no updates running from any programs, it keeps running out, even if the browser is closed.

    any help please and thank you.

    funny thing this happened to m during the week.... about 235MB gone between 2-5(am). Data count app pointed to springboard being responsible for all that data download.

    You should install a proper firewall on your PC/laptop. For example, Comodo firewall shows you all open connections and how much data it is using. You can also set apps to not connect to the net.
