Thanks… I am going to follow up with AllStream. The bytes/sec are the Max and Average. I think their reporting system is broken. RRD reported 1.5Mb/s, it was just a table top sitting there until we cancelled the windows updates. Then it dropped right back down.

For example if you have a fast connection to a building, and it is being shared between tenants. Without restricting the downstream, user A can severely impact the experience of user B. > I looked up the data report on AllStreams system for the last 24 hours. > In 534.5 bytes/sec 298.2 bytes/sec > Out 532.2 bytes/sec 310.5 bytes/sec Why are there 2 values for in and 2 for out? 500 bytes/second is essentially an idle connection. You are probably looking at some average. In pfSense you can look at the RRD graphs to see what you traffic was like over time. Regards, -Jeppe
