bandwidth disappears into blackhole

[evilsee]

Today I discovered that my usage was 2.74 gigs. WTF. I run a firewall which has bandwidth monitiring and I according to that I haven't used a tenth of my 3 gigs. Normally the firewall software is out by 50 megs or so for the whole month.

Does anyone have or had the same problem?

Yes i have been moaning about this for months and even lodged a complaint with ICASA. No response as yet.

Maybe some else is also logged into your account ...

Theoretically that shouldn't be possible. I used to have 2 accounts, and could only connect with the account that was setup for the specific UTC (ie, UTC 1 could not connect with UTC 2's account). Very possible that WBS ****ed up again.

Does the bandwidth usage page work? I don't get any output from it. Has been like this for the past 3 or 4 months.

Does for me ... and so far no traffic theft from me. BTW hexium the URL has changed, so try navigating to it from the www.iburst.co.za homepage.

Ive ruled out viruses. I run clamav on the firewall and its up too date and the PC has AV software on them aswell. So I dunno. Im going to have to call them on monday,

Noticed this last month as well, bandwidth is definately dissapearing to somewhere, firewall & proxy showed usage of around 2gb while iburst capped me on the 28th already.

Well, on Saturday it was reporting that I have done 6 GB so far. In 3 days...
3GB down and 3GB up.
This I think it highly unlikely, especially as I would have been capped after the first 3GB.
