    Question Looking for Broadband Tool

    I am soon ( one week ) moving onto broadband from dialup. I was wondering if anyone knew any useful tools that will log all bandwidth use from my computer. It only needs to be simple, freeware as well please. At the moment the closest feature I have is the statistics in Tiny Firewall. but those stats are only kept whilst my computer is turned on, reset as soon as I restart.

    I would just like to be able to log bandwidth use over the days and weeks, maybe a few nice graphs to look at as well.

    Thanks
    Mark

    Edit: Maybe online timer as well for day to day, total and weeks and so on...

    Ok your ISP should offer this service.

    Esle if you have a router you can use MRTG.

    If you have a real OS (heh) you can use IP Accounting to track all different types of packets, and even see whether you download more via KaZaA or FTP
