Eircom stats not updating

    I've noticed over the last week or so that my eircom download stats haven't been updating, or if they have, they're underestimating by a long way. Currently my stats say that I've downloaded 689MB so far in May, but my DUMeter says I've downloaded 2.54GB so far this month. I've checked to make sure that DUMeter is just monitoring my broadband connection and not double counting.

    Anyone else find their eircom stats are well below what they should be ?

    Yep mine haven't been counting for about a week or two. I think I read they're planning to start charging in June or so, so maybe they're working on the site, or maybe it's just screwed again :P....

    Yeah it said i had downloaded 1117 MB a few days back and still says that..

    They are doing improvements so who knows, maybe they dont know that we are downloading stuff ;)

    try pluggin out your router, and pluggin it back in after about 30 seconds.

    I turn my netopia off when not i use and my stats are far from accurate as well.

    So its definatly the site :)

    Its updating it pretty slow. On my page the last update was on the 20th May.

    Have anyone noticed that there's no longer calculations for exceeding the cap?

    eircom were having problems with their stats page a while back, but thats because they were revamping the stats server, but now the new stats server is completely accurate as they are charging if you go over your monthly download limit.

    on the 5th of may i was at 850megs and currently im on 320megs!!

    I know that I have downloaded over 3Gb but my stats page says 320Mb and no activity in the last week (when I have been on xbox live every night for 4hrs).

    So it certainly is not accurate!

    Well the stats server might be working but the front end certainly isn't. Mine hasn't been updated at all and I switch everything off every night. I seriously doubt Eircom will be charging people without telling them how much they've downloaded so far, it would be like enforcing speed limits but disallowing speedometers :) .
    Also, Eircom said on the last bill everybody got that they would be notifiying their customers before they start charging, I haven't been notified and haven't heard of any others who have either...

    maybe eircom aren't keeping track of downloads or at least they dont have the capability to do so. wink wink ;);)

    the stats are back working and up-to date again, my stats were reporting only 3gig over past 2 weeks but now up to 7gigs so looks like it was tracking everything we download afterall.

    Hummm, since this morning when I posted, I have achieved the impressive feat of reducing the amount I have downloaded!

    I must admit however that last nights usage seems to have been logged, however they are overall, for this month way out.

    Mine have increased slightly, but still not even in the ballpark of what I've downloaded this month.
