Title: Need Help Decoding Windows' Integrated Internet Connection Monitor
Post by: Boris_yo on March 21, 2011, 05:05:09 PM

I have Windows XP and Windows 7 and both monitors have a difference. Monitor in Windows XP displays less numbers than Windows 7. Both of monitors do not display measurement next to all these numbers so i don't know where are kilobytes, megabytes and gigabytes like on this picture in Windows XP:

Can somebody tell me how to measure data in Windows XP and Windows 7?

Do you know software similar to Windows' integrated connection monitor but that counts B, Kb, Mbs, Gbs etc. and not packets?

There are plenty of bandwidth monitors out there.

What is it you're trying to accomplish?

Just want to know bandwidth in real time and what uses it, bandwidth history and also have ability to limit download/upload.

That might be the tricky part, but if you google bandwidth monitors there are plenty of results.
