hope your computer date is not 20th april !! i dont know about duf !! if bsnl is giving correct stuff, then ofcourse it may be a problem with DUF. if it is taking data from your pc, then your system date !!

Your first two screenshots show same total viz 1.498 GB. ( NU ignored)
No 3 from DQUF seems there is a bug.
It does not help the programmer if you post part page of the program..
I have checked my acct both with Datafox ( see statusbar blue ) and DQUF and all seem normal.
Post the page showing amount calculation etc.
 
Can anyone explain me why the data trasfered is much more than the actual (kindly find the daily transaction details below):

I am generally surfing through different websites especially moneycontrol.com, but not watching any videos or listening to music.

The numbers seen are huge.

Is this normal?

The total usage has exceeded 2 GB within a month span.

Kindly let me know what I should be doing?

Thank you.

@tpj, welcome to broadbandforum.co,post the details clearly, insert spaces in between clubbed data..(or just post the screen shot, it will be easy)Now, Disable your Antivirus-automatic updates, Windows automatic updates, and install a firewall like ZoneAlarm, to watch the programs that are using internet.Do this and check your usage after a day or two. Post the result here.
 


Option 1 :download this program and watch download details . Daily/weekly/monthly. Maynot/cannot be 100% accurate with BSNL usage check.
Tautology Bandwidth Meter - Internet Traffic Usage Monitor
Option 2 : What is your tariff plan ?If Home 500 surf between 0205-0755 free usage.
Option 3 : Check progressive billing by using this DQUF program from
http//sunish.net ( add :)
Option 4 : Switch Browser to FireFox with Add On Adblock Plus and Flash block.They will block many advts video flash etc.
Also addon IETAB to switch to IE for some web sites which don't display properly.
Option 5 : With FF download addon DATAFOX . this will show your usage in the status bar daily.
DataFox - A BSNL DataOne & MTNL TriBand bandwidth usage monitor
Option 6: Download meter version 1.1 from Shaplus
ShaPlus Bandwidth Meter - Freeware to display bandwidth consumed for session, day and month daily and progressive totals , near Taskbar.
Option 7: Switch to Home 750 speed 256Kbps for unlimited 24 hour usage.
effective May 1 st if applied for now.
 
Guess what guys! I contacted the officer at the exchange nearby and finally got my 14 digit portal ID :thumbsup:. It works great and I find myself exeeding usage limits by about 500 mb halfway through the month :whistle:. Now I've given a letter for change of pan from Home 250 to Home 500.
 
Hi Friends, In the middle of the month, usage of April month started being diaplayed. Now the problem.....It has all the entries of all sessions of the month till now...but the data used is almost half than the data recorded by my system's bandwidth manager. I use 'ShaPlus Bandwidth Meter'. The problem is not linked with free night hours.What do junta say?

The tariff plan will be changed only on 1 st May, if they accept your letter, after using Home 250 for only two months. You will be charged for excess usage, ( under Home 250 plan) till change is effected to Home 500.

Use DQUF from sunish.net ( add http://).
BSNL meter usage data reading is final.
