Xmas is comin - What's in the packet?

[Wing Commander Fowler]

I have a broadband with unlimited connection but an 8 gig download limit. Would love to know how much I've downloaded at any time but the funny thing is when I select the properties for the always on connection it only tells me how many "packets" have been exchanged. So, what's that all about? How many megs in YOUR package? :E

Try This (http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/link/tbm/) or google for Net Limiter both show the amount of traffic to/from your computer

I depends WCF.

Under TCP/IP you can specify the packet size which you wish to use along with the TTL etc..

Seeing as though I doubt you've modified your own settings (only really done by performance tweakers or extreme gamers) I think the default is 500 and odd bytes (don't think it was 512).
