Broadband Forum

could anyone provide me the link for a good software that can give me live details on the usage rather visiting thw dataone.in website.... also the info is not live !! so it would be great if someone could help me regarding this !!

thanks

there is one called bandwidth metre but I dont really like it that much. google it out.

There is one called uv metre or something like that which is better and comes with a 30 days trial.

Here is a software which does exactly the same thing which you want. [url]http://www.shaplus.com/exes/misc/DataOne-Bandwidth%202.7.zip[/url]

below are it features:

@ parminder and piyush

thanks guys ... and piyush bhai.. the sw is great . just does what i want.. thanks so much..

I had used a similar software long time ago. But these softwares dont act as proof if BSNL people do some tampering in your monthly usage.

tampering ?? Does it really happens ??
once i receive bill for much usage but when i calculated with shaplus it was not that much..may be they have did somethin like that..
i just wanna knw even others can do that tampering ?

It always happens. I have two software to check detailed data usage, but my dataone statements never matched with it. May be their definition of MB's is different.

why do you actually need such a software when you can check the usage online itself!!
i hope you are aware that the usage can be checked using the website bsnl.co.in...

please be assured that BSNL people do not tamper your usage records .

usage details can be checked directly on BSNL portals or you can also
use the utilities which take actual records from BSNL Dataone portals .

For those who thinks bsnl tampers with their data usage records.. please check your machines for viruses and spywares.

Bsnl is too big a company to bother with stealing a couple of hundred rupees from you.

I agree with you mmm
