Is it possible to find out

[shonaart]

Hi
I am considering getting ADSL and at the moment I have the normal dialup connection.
Is there a way I find out on average how many gigs I tranfer on my dialup system, so I can see which package to go for ie: 10gigs, 30 gigs ADSl etc.

My service provider is Mweb.
Thanks
Vaughan

There are bandwidth monitors available - check out TUCOWS
http://tucows.saix.net

But I think a better way to determine the best package for you, is for you to tell us what you use the net for

Try Netmeter or BWmeter. Both are great. Netmeter is freeware.

BWmeter is shareware for 30 days, I think. It is very good and gives you hourly/daily/weekly/monthly info. You can even cap yourself if you want. Very nice proggie.

um, you can't do 10 gigs on dialup a month anyway, so just get 10gigs...

doing 3gb on dialup is impressive if you ask me.

Thanks guys

Hi
Thanks for the help guys, its appreciated. I think I will go with 10gigs, now I need to change my service provider ( mweb ) and find a cheaper service provider. ( ADSL ) Not to sure which one, but I will look at the forum.
Cheers

firstly drop mweb like a hot rock

for their 6 gig package you could afford a 30 gig package from allyoucaneat.co.za webafrica.co.za or axxess.co.za
