Default Tethering Usage App???

Hi, i searched around the web for a bit but couldnt find the right wording or info for what i was looking for so.... does anyone know of an app that will keep track of my tethering usage while im on my laptop? im fine using DM to tether my phone as i have tethering included on my plan so doesnt cost, but i would like to track how much ive used without writing it down every time i connect it as i only have 1GB of usage so, any ideas folks? TIA

Have you looked at using dumeter or some application like that?

I know there's a widget (if you are using Vista or Windows 7) on Most Wanted Windows Gadgets - Windows Vista and Windows 7 that will show your speed and keep record of your usage as well. You just need to configure it to track your "blackberry modem"

The app "Tether" which can be found on this site (very good app, I use it myself) shows what your looking for on your computer. Once plugged it, you can check the usage of whenever you used your blackberry as a modem. In addition while your using it, it shows how much data your tethering. Its 50$ regular, but you can do a free trial, and or wait till its on sale again.

Tether or as it's known to me as tetherberry, is good at that. It's something I'll be using when I switch to wind mobile.
