Measuring internet usage?
I'm on a local WISP for internet service, connected to a Cradlepoint router on my end. I'm not very knowledgable about 'net, but am wondering if there is an "easy" way to measure how much data I'm actually using? The reason for this is because the WISP service is expensive and slow (%100/m for 5 Mbps). AT&T Wireless service is the other option, providing 35 Mbps service, but gets really expensive as it's measured in 5 GB blocks. I think about $130/mo for 30 GB. So, since I don't know how much I'm using now, it's difficult to see if it might be worth changing. (Of course, I realize I'd probably use more if the service was faster.)
