Broadband usage meter showing crazy download amount that I did not use

    Can you confirm if efibre unlimited has no usage caps or fair usage policy?

    If it does, I have a problem as your usage meter says I have downloaded nearly 2TB so far this month.
    It claims I downloaded 1.2TB in a 7 hour period on 5th Feb which is mathematically impossible on a line rated 80Mb max speed.
    This usage happened at the same time as I way trying out a different router. That might have something to do with it?
    I am asking here now as I don't want a massive bill in a few weeks for excess usage that I did not use.
    My monthly average is approx 400gb.

    Hi ffocused

    Yes, I can confirm that the unlimited plan has no usage caps and no fair usage policy. There would really be nothing to worry about :)
