Download

[hurgh]

Hi,

I am not sure if it is possible but I was wondering is there any way to track how many bytes,meg or whatever has been sent and received through a network card??

The reason I ask is cause I have a cable connection and it uses a network card to connect to the cabel modem then from there it sends the information to the server and you know how the rest works.

Now the problem is cause it is a cabel connection there is no little icon in the systray that says how long you have been connected and how much has been downloaded. I like to know this information so I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to track this or know of a program thta does this.

Thanks for any help

Try:
msdn.microsoft.com
and search on "NetWork Monitor" or download the platform SDK and have a look at the same thing.

This should provide you with the API calls that you need.

I never ended up writing a program or anything like that for what i wanted bud i did find a program that did exactly what i wanted, called Bandwidth Monitor, [url]http://www.idyle.com/software/internet/bandwidth-monitor/[/url
]

Go and check it out, it does all that i wanted it to do and more.

Ps the reason that i never made a program for it is cause, i moved on to C programing.
