Entnet Billing / usage shows strange activity

[toaster]

When I check my detailed usage on the Entanet site it is showing some strange download activity. Everything is turned off except wireless router (which is secure WPA2 + Mac filtering). What's going on?

Todays data.

I know it's not much but over a month it will add up! :s

On the ADSL24 my Account/ usage page it shows as zero for today?

No can't be that. No one in all day. PC and laptops are turned off.
The only thing turned on is the router.
No games consoles connected or anything else.

I have noticed this same thing ever since I returned to work in the new year when I knew everything was turned off.

Can the router itself be downloading small amouts like this (network time sync etc)?

i would have thought it was just sync traffic.. it's such a small amount of information i wouldn't worry about it.

Turn the router off. Problem solved and you'll save on your leccie bill.
