Hello,
I need to limit the amount of data my child can download each day and can't find a simple program to do this. I have a Verizon MiFi access point in my house with a 10GB monthly cap. I need a program that I can install on a single computer that will allow say, 100MB per day data transfer, then not allow any more internet access on that computer till the next day. I'm OK with computers, but not a guru so simplicity of setup & use is important.
Most programs I've seen are geared for complex network monitoring by IT pros, and the ones geared for monitoring kids mainly restrict access by time spent online, whereas I need to cap usage by the amount used each day. Anyone have any suggestions? Computer is an Acer laptop and an eMachines desktop, both using wireless access and both running Windows 7. Thanks for any suggestions.
