How to find traffic on the modem

Any Internet provider that provides users with access to the Internet packages, usually allows you to watch the statistics of downloaded-transmitted data. This data helps to calculate traffic on the modem on any day. Also, these data are relevant for ADSL subscribers with limited tariff plan.

Mobile modem, which is defined as a USB drive, is most often equipped with specific software built into memory. This program has the "Statistics" feature. This displays data on adopted and transmitted information for the account. You can select the period in the Special Menu, or the list (week, month, for example) will be issued in one tab. Knowing your tariff plan, you can easily calculate the residue of traffic until the end of the accounting period without speed limit.
