Where's the damn bandwidth meter

I have no problem with most of this. Throttling during congestion, fine. Clear bandwidth cap at a reasonably high level, fine.

But if they're going to have a bandwidth cap they need to offer a freaking meter. Where the hell is it? Back last year a Comcast employee said one was coming by February this year. Nope. Its freaking August now and they've had this cap for nigh on a year now.

And no, a software program on one of my many computers that doesn't track the stuff I do on my Apple TV or Tivo or iPhone or ... isn't of any use to me. And no I don't want to find an old model pre-802.11 n router that I can reflash with custom firmware to track usage either. If there was a commercially available competitively priced router out there that supported metering with warnings and tweaking to follow Comcast's rules on what matters (uploads count or not? when does the month start? etc) I would buy it already.

But it doesn't. Comcast should have a page I can hit to see my damn usage!
