| Bandwidth Monitor
I currently have 4Mb ADSL Broadband with BT and they've capped it due to a lot of downloading to 2Mb. That hasn't really bothered me. Next Sat, I'm going to go to Virgin Media XL Broadband, which is 20Mb Cable Broadband. But the thing is, Virgin also cap my Broadband if I download over a certain amount at certain times, but they cap it to about 2/4Mb's ... which is a REAL waste of money. That's the back story, now for the question. Is there a program that will monitor my bandwidth usage, and a program that I don't know, will let me set an alarm or notice or something when I go to a certain amount between 2 days. For example, between the times: 1600 - 2100 - I can't go over 3000Mb 1000 - 1500 - I can't go over 6000Mb I want to be told when I'm getting close to this. Also, the same with upload to, but that's not a major. Not asking for Much ![]() But if anyone can help me, it's the good people on macosx.com The Doctor

I believe these work off the command-line: http://mac.softpedia.com/get/Network...nitor-NG.shtml http://people.suug.ch/~tgr/bmon/ Here's one where you can key in your monthly allocation and monitor how close you get to it: http://freespace.virgin.net/jeremy.d...utilities.html All these I found with a simple Google search for "Mac OS X bandwidth monitor."
