When i was on dialup, an icon with 2 computers on it would appear on the system tray when i was connected on the internet. When i double clicked on them, it would tell me how many bytes i had received and sent on that connection. RE: Internet Bytes Sent Bytes Received by NeoRevan on 07-11-2004 at 01:35 AM
No. RE: Internet Bytes Sent Bytes Received by -dt- on 07-11-2004 at 02:32 PM a very good tool if u had broadband is http://www.dumeter.com/ so you can tell what you current speeds are RE: Internet Bytes Sent Bytes Received by CookieRevised on 07-11-2004 at 03:16 PM
quote:That doesn't show you how many bytes you have recieved/send. It will show you how many packets you have recieved/send..... edit: (above is only is true if you have a lan-card for example with broadband..) thanks for informing me, guys, I didn't knew ....There is a very big difference there! A packet usual consists of hundreds of bytes... The bytesize of packets can be altered. quote:speeds don't have anything todo with the amount of data begin recieved/send... But this said, that tool can indeed also show the amount of bytes recieved/send... RE: Internet Bytes Sent Bytes Received by x4nder on 07-11-2004 at 07:05 PM there are some firewalls that show how many incoming bytes there are. google has a few RE: Internet Bytes Sent Bytes Received by CookieRevised on 07-11-2004 at 07:25 PM If you wanna know temporarly and without installing anything how much bytes are being send/recieved in XP, use the Task Manager and go to the Network tab (in the lower frame you see exactly how many are recieved/send as long as you keep your taskmanager open)...

quote:Actually, since he's using Windows 98 with dial-up, I'm pretty sure you're wrong, because I have lots of experience with Win98 and dial-up... Screenshot: The number of packets is shown in XP though. quote: RE: Internet Bytes Sent Bytes Received by Choli on 07-11-2004 at 08:30 PM WDZ: I'm not sure in 98, but in XP (and I thˇnk the same goes for 98) when you have dial-up, it shows the number of bytes and when you have a LAN card (for example in broadband) it shows the number of patckets.

quote:Oh, OK... that's what I originally thought, but I wasn't sure... I couldn't test it because my modem is unplugged. I figured the units would be consistent for all connections, because it's basically the same status window... RE: Internet Bytes Sent Bytes Received by Choli on 07-11-2004 at 08:49 PM
yes, look at these two windows: |
