Re: my router

they'd have to match the bandwidth report on my ddwrt router...
It should technically end up being a bit lower, as they should only be polling the unicast octets in / octets out SNMP OIDs. Raw interface stats on a ddwrt/Tomato/etc device tend to include broadcast frames in their numbers.

But all those braodcast frames are tying up their valuable bandwidth! I full expect people will be charged for all bits that they consume, whether it's actual data, protocol/network overhead, and including corrupted packets.
