Re: Broadband Usage (Fault)?

Hi Jojo
7 or 8 hours? That sounds more reasonable. I can do that. What about if I switch it off at night when I go to bed? Or does it have to be during the day time?

There was no usage during that night anyway. I'd do it on a Saturday again if you're going out. Even 4 hours would do.

Re: Broadband Usage (Fault)?

Do I HAVE to go out? Can't I just switch it off? Smiley No, if you insist that I go out, then I will.
Thx Jojo for your help. Will come back to you with the results. Hopefully it was just a one off.

You could just pretend to go out, maybe hide in another room. Wink

I could play hide and seek by myself! But that would be just too weird  Crazy Besides I was never very good at it so I would never find myself!  Grin

Have you seen any more examples of where the VMBU usage does not match NetWorX?

Re: Broadband Usage (Fault)?

to jelv: I only just downloaded networx so I can't go check that far.
to nigel: The downloads/uploads were done while my pc was in hibernation and just to let you know, I am NOT going to download and install SP1. As far as I know there is nothing new in SP1 and I have been installing all the monthly updates.
