Software quessie:

Can anyone recommend an app to monitor bandwidth / traffic used?

I have adsl at home and want to see how much certain online apps use - like streaming video's, online poker etc....

hopefully i can measure per session / time period or even better per app.

Really? No-one has any options?

I remember searching and searching and could not believe it when it was so difficult to find a decent solution that did not require setting up a server or some such nonsense.

To this day have not found anything that doesn't cost 50-100$, its meant for such a simple and obvious purpose and surely there is a small proggy out there?. Perhaps because only South African's have a reason to monitor their bandwidth :/ stupid caps!!!

Im with you on this one, perhaps someone can enlighten us???!!

I could suggest a few that counts your total bandwidth but heck windows can count your megs too, more interested in some specific details.

FYI Check this thread above...although I found a cool program it is not freeware. Other suggestions did not help me much as it is an injustice to setup a whole server for such a simple task.....I mean not many people bother about servers at home lol

Have you tried CCProxy ??

Another forum has suggested a thing called NetLimiter - downloading the freeware version now.

It works great. Only issue is it doesn't show amount used per app but it does show all apps using bandwidth, when and how much at the time.

Edit: 5 minutes later I noticed a button called 'stats' .... click .... stats for each app are revealed!
