[TriLUG] cause for alarm?

[Jim Ray]

Well, I think we should do some on site diagnosis at the earliest
possible convenience. Do not forget to bring technical tools like
surfboard (and I don't mean some motorola modem).

Subject: [TriLUG] cause for alarm?

After all this discussion of possible metering on TWC I decided to check
the stats on my public router on at the outer banks (the public wi-fi
network - I figured, if any network, a public one would have a lot of
bandwidth eaten up).  What I found was interesting:

In/out packets 44281817/56033743 (1.86 GB/3.83 GB)

'cuse me?  More outbound than inbound?  This particular modem has a 3/1
connection so the outbound is faster than most however I still would
have thought, over 60 days, the download would have been much higher
than the upload.  I wonder if the counters wrapped.

What think yee?
