I suppose, you can simply install Net Meter or DU Meter on all machines in your home, then periodically check how much traffic is used... :) Hi, Dean,

My 13 yr old niece is probably the culprit for the sudden high usage
1g/day and we only have 20g for the month, I just want to track each
pc/laptop for daily/monthly usage..
Can I just load Net meter on each computer to track it usage.

Many Thanks Dean

It's almost the same as the paid version (DU Meter). As for differences between Windows/MacOS when measuring data sent/received, in WinXP you can see how many bytes are sent/received, if you open your connection properties (LAN or WiFi), but it is pretty basic, and doesn't show you any serious stats, that's why apps like DU Meter and Net Meter were created. :-) @Long:

It does the same thing with the same quality for lesser price. Besides, I believe the basis of both those softwares should be a built-in feature. The logging and alerts are the only extras. Fortunately, Mac OS X lets users know about data sent/received as well as rate. Windows doesn't do that (or I don't know about it). I use the free one.
