Usage Tracking

Allan · **Guest**

I am trialing version 2.0 as a means to track usage of a broadband internet connection. The internet connection, like most broadband conenctions, is billed on bytes not time. Can you, or do you intend to provide user logging of bytes in addition to duration?

We do not yet have plan to provide tracking on amount of traffic (i.e. byte)

i need to track user traffic too (because my ISP bills me by traffic)
is it possible to use some other software together with FirstSpot to provide this functionality?

Hello rmakarov,

Very good question. We'll do some research and give you feedback on that.

Merry Christams!

I have to agree. FirstSpot would be better if it could moniter bandwidth as long as it didn't slow it (FirstSpot) down much. Would be great for people to buy 10 MB. insted of 1 hour. would stop people abusing bandwidth with P2P programs.
