Hey there,

Can anyone recommend a bandwidth monitoring tool? I'm using Virgin Media on Windows Vista.

TIA!

    If you log onto your Modem/Router, most of them have a bandwidth monitor / recorder.

    Are you wanting to monitor 1 Pc or multiple.

    Think Broadband's seems ok. It'll only monitor the machine it's installed on though, so if you want to monitor usage for your whole network you'll have to use your router, if it has that functionality.

    I use NetLimiter - fairly good but only does the machine it's installed on.
