Orcon Quota Meter 1.0 gadget (Beta)
Lousy data caps, unreasonable excess data costs? Get the most out of your Orcon data.
Monitor your data usage directly from the desktop with this minimal but informative gadget for Windows 7 – requires Orcon broadband.
At a glance it displays data usage so far, projected quota – that is, the optimum usage for that day of the month, and the difference between the two. Its a simple task to keep track of where you’re at and scale back if needed or download full throttle.
Explanation of settings
Orcon plan data: Amount of data allocated to you during a month.
Colour cue threshold: Leeway before colour cue changes to indicate usage out of sync with optimum.
Last day of cycle: The day before your billing/data cycle renews.
