Hello, all,
Greetings from the mosquito infested bog. You remember that my situation, here, in the third world (rural Massachusetts), I have the "last mile" problem, so am dependent on a Verizon hotspot for my data connection. Verizon, of course, is devious, venal, and rapacious, and every once in a while claims I have downloaded 4 gigs and bills me accordingly, even though we never load moving images, etc. In this connection I have been trying out Net Monitoring softwares. Does anybody have experience with these? I have Net Balancer loaded now, but perhaps Net Limiter is better? By the way, CAN I safely download programs from Cnet or Techspot? Net Balancer is run by some guy named Rusian in Moldova. How much do I trust? The only use to which I have put it, so far, is to give me statistics on my data use per day. On the Day that Verizon claims I used 4 G, Net Balancer says I used barely 400 megs, so it's "on" with Verizon. Anybody else in this situation? Paranoically yours, Nick Nicholas S.
