BWMeter 3.2.3

Some while back, we talked about the pros and cons of SLT's new ADSL package which has a 1GB download limit. Users of this limited ADSL package will find this software extremely useful as it makes life easier by keeping track of your bandwidth usage.

BWMeter is a powerful bandwidth meter, monitor and traffic controller, which measures, displays and controls all traffic to/from your computer or on your network. Unlike other products, it can analyze the data packets (where they come from, where they go, which port and protocol they use). This makes it possible to distinguish between local and internet traffic for example. BWMeter can also be used for traffic control by setting a speed limit for all kinds of connections or restricting access to certain internet sites. It creates statistics for all computers in your network, measuring and displaying all LAN traffic as well as download / upload from the internet. You can even define filters which show your transfer with certain internet addresses (e.g. to see how much data you download from your favorite news server). BWMeter is ideal for home users to get an overview of how much bandwidth they use, as well as small to large businesses, where one computer can control the traffic and maintain the statistics of downloaded / uploaded data of all computers in the network.

Features:

  • Graphical and numerical display of bandwidth
  • User definable filters for measuring bandwidth
  • User definable graphs to visualize bandwidth
  • Can monitor all network interfaces / adapters
