Anybody getting some messed up telkom tracker results? Apparently I've used 1.55Gb today, yet on my bandwith meter it says I've done +- 50Mb, This is annoying.

Well I'm capped, and I phoned Telkom today and their lines are full leading me to believe that many users are having a problem.

tbf that's the state of the telkom lines at any point in time. it doesn't necessarily mean that this is an issue.

Last month my daily usage email jumped from 88% on a Tuesday to 43% on the Wednesday... This month it went from 50% one day to 100% the next (over a weekend when no-one was home to use the internet). I'm not capped at all so will just see what happens.

On "Bandwidth Meters" - can anyone recommend one? I have Netlimiter2 installed on my machine but there are 4 machines at home that all connect to a Telkom Mega 100WR router/modem. Is there a way to measure all use given that there are 4 PC's connected (sometimes 6).
