Download Limiting Per Day

Rhys · 07-14-2004, 05:35 PM

I have ADSL and a D-Link DSL 504 Router and want to divide my 12GB download limit to 500MB daily. Does anyone know how to do this? My cable using friend told me about this (he has done it).

PS. I want to do this because my family want the good speeds of ADSL and i want downloads --- my mama always taught me to share

Rhys, in all the years i've been reading forums, i've never heard of a way to limit the amount of data you can D/L per day. Since your friend has somehow found the "magic" tool, i'd ask him/her.

(And yes...I agree with your mama... it's always good to share

).

Sorry, i have been misinformed. D/w, there is no technical way. My friend jus watched his downloads.

It is OK .
install DUmeter and make it to let you know
when you reach 500MB with - Option ->Alert mark "during current day"
and when reach it unplug the router.....

I think there should be software way of limit but never
come to it....

milen · 08-02-2004, 05:33 PM

the is no limit,
but after 500 MB you have to pay extra,
that's all

Well that blows, 500 MB is breadcrumbs

you can use Super DU Controler to do that or bandwidth controller. try out their trial versions. you could also use flashget and manually throttle your downloads to a set speed and use winRAR or winACE to split your files into 500MB segments. I've used all of them and DU controler sounds like something to consider in your case
