Hello,

I've searched the forum and found a few complex-looking bandwidth meters, meant to display current use graphically.

I just want a non-GUI script which would silently monitor traffic, and if less than X bytes are transferred in Y minutes, would do something (execute a subroutine).

Any ideas, how would I go about that? The existing bandwidth monitors are very complex -- it's hard for me to extract the simple code I need from them.

An external utility is an option too, by the way, if you know of one.

Thanks!

Working on something.

In the meantime the free monitor from analogX may be of interest to you:

It has an installer , if thats not your thing Sandbox it

Try this:



It gives the bandwidth in bytes. Its pretty simple to add a condition that will alert you if it goes over or below a certain byte count.

Let me know if this is of interest...

Interesting approach!

Doesn't exactly work. The file does get created, but the GUI still says "loading" for some reason.

File contents:



So the StringSplit should work. Not quite sure why the interface says nothing.

I did this:



And the messagebox never showed up.. So I guess the process won't quit, or something. Does it work for you?

It's a good start, anyway! Using Netstat I can probably figure something out myself, too.

Sorry about that, I assumed the received bytes was at character position 24 ..

Try this instead. its a simple parse.




Let me know how this works out..

edit:

I just read the 1st post again and noticed you also wanted to know how many bites in X minutes.

For that you want to create a byte stamp using the variable bytesData1 at A_Now (when the script starts) and then subtract the current bytesData1 from the initial byte stamp when A_Now reaches desire length of time (so you'll need a variable and condition for that also).

That works perfectly!

Thank you very much!

If you have any problems with the subroutine feel free to post what you have and I will take a look ..
