Internet usage with Netflix

[coolVariable]

All I can say is WOW! Yes - we have been enjoying netflix a lot:
40GB in network traffic over the last 11 days ... that's would be approx 120GB in a month.
Admittedly, some of that traffic is probably the HDHomerun for OTA but ... WOW!

Yeah, I think I hit about 120 GB last month, according to Comcast. A fair chunk of that was video from other sources, but if you watch a lot of HD Netflix streams it can add up.

I really want to know how much BW I use a month but my account isn't metered. Maybe I can check my router?

I've used 9.8GB today, largely from watching several HD episodes of Bones via Netflix.

I checked my network usage in Windows ... and since I had not restarted in 11 days.

ddwrt-tomato track usage.

i find i don't use netflix streaming, sure its there, but i'd rather use the disc.

Mine isn't metered and most of my netflix is through our Wii so checking on my computer won't work. The wii doesn't stream HD so my usage may not be as high as people doing that but I guarantee that Netflix accounts for the vast majority of our network usage.

I'm watching through "The Tick" as I type this.
