Less that 10GB and most of that is for my son. I imagine 2GB would do for me in the month.

As a guess 50 meg a month, a fair amount less than 10 gig (I have a 1 gig drive)

All-time high for me was over 200GB but I watched a lot of movies that month.

I usually hover between 25-50 GB for normal use.

Hehe, I evened up the poll now. I download between 11 and 30GB. Used to be more last year when I was a P2P freak. Probably around 50GB.

Btw, guys what stuff do you exactly download? .

Nice pool, wifi4milez.

Cheers.

Re: POLL! How much do you download/upload per month? POLL!

I do 71-100GB a month, depending on what I'm doing.

As for what I download, I do a lot of video streaming on sites like Gamespot.com and HD gameplay downloads. That starts to add up.

So far we have some great results. I am not sure if the rest of you can see them, however I will post the totals in chart form when this poll is done. I would like to have more than 100 participants before I post the results, so encourage your friends/DSLR buddies to come and vote!

Over 100 GB a month here as well. Last month was my
single heaviest usage, at 136 GB. So far I'm at around
64 GB for August - I'll have to look at my DuMeter stats
when I get home. And I still have a bunch of downloading
to do, so it could easily top 100 GB this month.

Here is MTA's online tool & my usage. My ISP caps usage to 10GB a month. I've never gone over it in the 7 years I've been with them.

Re: POLL! How much do you download/upload per month? POLL!

I had to up my limit to 20 GB early this year due to someone finding out that they can watch videos online. The March usage is going down as the days it watches them disappear.

I think she's more or less happy that she can getbroadband, as most places in the same situation (40 miles from the nearest city [that's other than Wasilla, Owlbet See Profile!]) with a low population don't get broadband as easily.

I don't know how true it is, but I've heard for the third time that fiber is coming to the Valley. Imagine that, a little hick town 40 miles from the nearest big city getting fiber BEFORE the nearest big city.

Then again, rumors are to be taken with a grain of salt.

Re: POLL! How much do you download/upload per month? POLL!

Yeah, I doubt it, unless MTA themselves decided to. It's not worth it, though, and they would go bankrupt before you knew it. Installing fiber to the home is quite an investment, and takes several years to make the money back.

Re: POLL! How much do you download/upload per month? POLL!

Ok. Are there tools that work on routers?

BEFW11S4 v1, WRT54G v6 linksys official firmware v1.02.0, and WRT54G v2 right now with, DD-WRT v23 SP2 (09/15/06) std

I can on PCLinuxOS 2007 use KNemo, but I still will not know how much my parents and I use per month.

If I had netmeter or dumeter on their Windows based PCs, then I would have to add up how much my parents and I use per month.

I am pretty sure that you can set DDwrt to log your usage. Check their forums to find out.

I use Tomato to do this.

Edit: I chose 70-100. It used to be about 60/60, but I don't use my connection very much anymore, so it's dropped down by quite a bit. Sometimes lower than 70.

I replied "Less than 10GB per Month", but I cannot give a good answer, as I do not keep track.

I don't BitTorrent, but I surf a lot and E-mail a bit.

Carry on.
