ByteOMeter 1.5

CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

Everyone has waited for a Web page to load, even with a broadband connection, and wondered if something was wrong with their Internet connection. This download will tell you exactly what's happening, monitoring how fast your connection is operating in real time, and producing an elegant graph displaying average speed, total amount of data download and uploaded, and other statistics over a daily or monthly time period. It allows a user to set a daily limit on the amount of uploads or downloads, and includes a separate tool for logging traffic to a Web site. The utility takes up a fairly large amount of system memory while running in the background, but its simple interface gives us confidence in recommending it even to ordinary home computer users.
