I think I saw something like this on eircom once. A webpage showing how much you downloaded/uploaded in the last while.

Nope NTL do not have anyway to moniter your download/upload rate....

Alot of people use software based utils like DU Meter and others.....

Alright thanks. So that monthly download cap is irrelevent if they can't keep track?

They can track it.
They just dont give us the ability to look at it.
I got a call off them after 2 months of the service saying i was breaching my cap and to stop. So i did. So they can keep track sadly

They also told me to use net meter or du meter to monitor it myself.

any idea how much you were downloading, Diabolus?
the most i've managed is 78gb in december and i haven't recieved a call yet...
i've calmed it down to 40-50gb per month these days though

I think i was up at 100 gigs.
Went a bit mad for my first 2 months.
Havent been up past 10 gigs these days.
