There is a Bandwidth Usage Meter

[BettyWhite]

Go to ....Manage Your WildBlue Account... (on top of this page).

....Sign in

....Click on Usage.

And there it is. There is no downloadable version, so Right click and

create a shortcut for your desktop.

Its as good as it gets


It seems you can only get there by Manage Your WildBlue Account on this WildBlue World Forums.

Thank you. That is correct to my knowledge and belief.

That's the way I get to the usage meter also and it seems to be working well for me...even updates fairly quickly. When I do something to increase usage (like download a sizable file), it shows up on the meter fairly quickly.

It even has little icons that you can click to print out the page with meter on it or save it to a PDF file.

So for once, I can give WB a pat on the back for doing something better if not absolutely the best way.

I can't log in - Is this is because I am a Dish Network customer of Wild Blue?

The usage gadget that I had on my Google page that I logged in with my dishmail.net address hasn't worked for months.

Edited to add... I was able to find my usage when logging in to the dishmail customer portal. I should have investigated further before posting.

I contacted customer support.... They said while the usage meter is down they will not penalise us for over usage as long as it was not some ridiculous amount

This is only if you are on Excede.

I still get this message when I go to Usage:

We're sorry, our data usage meter is currently offline.
During this time we will not slow your access speed except for extreme usage cases.

Been that way for two months.

If you are on Excede you will need to use a separate program for the time being. They are currently only watching how much data people use to determine if their caps are enough.
