Reviews of net usage item:
Does not work in in most of the world...
The only one thats available for my ISP so I'm glad its great!
I seriously love this extension!! Being from Australia and working from home, I need to be able to monitor my bandwidth usage. You are my hero!!!
Was great, but does not work with Telstra Bigpond anymore :(
Absolutely unusable on Ubuntu Desktop 17.04 with Exetel. Parsing error (52) on every combination tried so far. Attempted to contact dev via forums, zero useful contact or reply.
Great add on. Would be nice if you could select the unit of measurement to display (ie display GB instead of MB). as my RSP displays in MB by default, which makes it a little longer to read.
Working great with Aussie BB, cheers!
Doesn't work with Bigpond.
parsing error s10 on bigpond,worked great when i was with westnet
Doesn't work on Chrome with Telstra.
Very good
Used to work occasionly when i was on ADSL but since moving to Telstra NBN (FTTN),every single time I receive a parsing error (S10)
I love it, but it has been broken for a couple of weeks now. Getting a parsing error - no matter what the script is not able to authenticate with Exetel even though I checked, rechecked, recreated account in the add-on, changed password in Exetel. My credentials are good for a manual logon to Exetel, but fail with the add-on. Very sad.
Been using it for a number of years on both Chrome and Firefox. Does what it says on the box. Always handy to see at a glance how the allowance limit is going. Would be nice to be able to have 2 bars/accounts for home and mobile though.
Excellent App (does what it advertises). Just wish (1) it could run multiple ISP's side-by-side (Home + Mobile) and (2) the occasional update of chrome or the extension didn't flip out the settings. It's easy enough to reinstall + reconfigure, but it'd be nice not to have to.
Didn't work for Bigpond for about 3 years. Parsing Error despite multiple re-installs. Retried Dec 2016 and works again. Edit: Next day, didn't work again "Parsing Error"
Parsing error with Fritzbox 7390.
net usage itmem
Works well with iiNet
No ISP option for USA or MSP either.
Been using it for a long time in both Chrome and Firefox. Always been very good.
great program
Always randomly get Internal Server Error 500
Yet to see it work for Bigpond...
Works perfectly for Mynetfone
Does not work for iPrimus. Constantly getting 'A parsing error occured (s5)'
Only certain country can use.
Totally useless. Why is Australia the default country of origin? Got a problem with U.S. users?
Been using this for iinet on Firefox for years without any problems.
Keeps defaulting to Australia. Doesn't work.
Disliking it at the moment. Hasn't been working for days. Edit: Reloaded password, error changed to 'Parsing error S19'. Clicked 'Updated usage' a couple of times and it finally worked.
Had been working well for Exetel in Chrome since August 2014, until the past month or two of "A parsing error occurred (S2)" (don't know exactly when - I've been very busy). Retyping my info into the Preferences/options page and then updating usage made it work again.
Until recently worked well. However not working at present for me on Windows 7 64 bit, Chrome Version 41.0.2272.118 m (64-bit), or for my partner's laptop Windows 8.1 Chrome Chrome Version 41.0.2272.118 m (32-bit).
bad
been giving me: ISP error occurred: 400 Bad Request (S1) for days
TPG User Neat layout Easy to setup
Works with Netspace (iiNet) after Toolbox update. Thanks!
Telstra has Issues (A parsing error occurred (S19))
Works great with TPG. Not sure about iiNet though
No longer works with Bigpond
Having issues seeing telstra bigpond data now. Worked fine a few weeks ago. Any chance of an update?
Working fine with OptusNet, being using this with Mozilla started using Google Chrome
Works with Internode
Can you give the option to change the colour in the icon? The text is very difficult to read as it is. Thankyou
good addition to chrome
No longer works with Telstra Bigpond
Doesn't work for UK users. Mainly aimed at Australia.
Love this, one of my very few chrome apps I use, wish there was a mobile app and widget, as iinets android app sucks.
It works for Internode but gets a lot of internal server errors and then the usage is un-readable in the icon. I have to disable it and re-enable it for it to become visable again but it only lasts til the next time it updates
Been using it for years, simple and effective.
Works well with bigpond. wish you could change the usage from megabytes to gigabytes under preferences
Worked for a couple of weeks on Bigpond but hasn't worked for the last 6 weeks (parser error)
Doesn't appear to work with Internode. '500 Internal Server Error (S4)'
Working fine on SpinTel as of 2014-03-14 upgrade (v1.3.372.1) on Fx & Chrome. Thanks Loune
Exetel updated their website and we now get parsing errors. Great extension that was working very well.
Works well with Optusnet, no issues so far. Very good work.
Works quite well. Only time I really have issues with it, is when I leave Chrome open for a day or two, but then it is only the display button that has a problem. Can still click on it, to get my usage show up.
No longer works, it looks like it stopped getting updates.
Stopped working with Netspace/iinet. Was always working now it isn't. Might take it off and reinstall it.
Not working on Bigpond cable at the moment. Receiving "A parsing error has occured (S19)" now. The only temporary fix I have found is: • Login to your Bigpond usage table (the one that shows your current usage over the month with blue bar graphs representing each day) • Once this has loaded, click Update Usage on NetUsage. Even though the extension isn't working properly - this temporary fix will at least tell you where you are for your current cycle.
Was good when it worked. Seems to be no longer working for Optus.
Stopped working for Bigpond ADSL. Hopefully an update soon to fix.
Doesn't work for Bigpond Cable anymore.
Doesn't work for Dodo internet. Connection Error Occured (S0).
good but would like the data remaining to be in GB as a option and to have differnet prefence proflies for different networks
Can't work out how to get this extension to work!
Only works with ISP's, unable to just monitor the data.
Very handy. It's icon often shows 1x in red. Hovering over the icon shows the true data usage and clicking the icon works as expected. If usage data can not be retrieved a red x appears. This red x remains even when usage data is updated and the current usage % is shown over the red x. The only way I can fix this is by restarting the browser.
Doesn't play nicely with Telstra Bigpond. I can force it to update the usage value shown in the popup by selecting the "Visit ISP usage page" button (have to hit the button several times). An authentication issue perhaps? Perhaps worse is that the icon doesn't update to match the value in the popup until I restart the browser.
This is an essential app if you have limited download available. It has served me unfailingly in Chrome for over a year, though always with a delay of about 1 hour. Mysteriously vanished along with my bookmarks today. Now restored and working perfectly,
When it worked it was excellent but it no longer works with Dodo. "Connection error occurred (S0)"
getting A parsing error occurred (S4). Im with TPG.
Was working great with Dodo up until a few weeks ago. Any chance there could be an update soon to fix some of these ISPs, like Dodo?
Has been broken for several months with bigpond.
Working nicely with Optus except %age in icon does not match the %age in details (icon currently lagging 2% behind actual. Would be a very minor inconvenience as long as the scale of error is only ever that amount - however, I now wonder how much I can trust it to be accurate. PS - never really understood what the target surplus is telling me.
Love your work, ^critter.
Works very well with Exetel. The ability to display in gigabytes would be a good plus.
I just installed and it works with Optus for me. Although it's mixing up the figures for DOWNLOAD and UPLOAD... but makes no difference to me as I get metered on TOTAL monthly usage up-and-down. So I can probably live with the mix-up. Used this also a while back with MyNetFone and it was excellent. Nothing appears to have changed.
Hasn't worked in soooooooooooo long. Great when it does function though. This is with BigPond.
Great extension until Optus totally changed their usage meter interface. Now this extension won't work with Optus at all. Hopefully an update will be forthcoming soon.
It's an excellent extension and does the job. Recently though it has been showing "ISP error occurred: 304 Not Modified (S21)" 5 star if the issue was rectified.
Great extension. I'm through iinet (well actually netspace before it was taken over) works great. However my one little niggling issue is that you cannot turn off the on/off peak times. I'm on a business plan and have anytime quota so it would be nice to have this feature, as currently while it still fetches usage it gets confused and just displays and "x" and you have to click it to see usage. With this feature fixed a perfect 5 stars
Started off ok, but after about one day just kept giving a 'parsing error' ( bigpond )
Currently not working with SkyMesh
Works really well, when Bigpond hasn't futzed something up so that it doesn't pull down the usage info... Not the Dev's fault though.
Used to work awesome but at the moment bigpond doesnt work - hoping for a quick fix! thanks!!!
Great app. I used it in Firefox and apart from the smaller visual footprint, the Chrome version is pretty much the same. Nice work :)
Excellent! 5/5 Star
Wow - so handy to have internet usage without having to continually logging in! Thank you.
Great extension, has stopped working with Bigpond though.
Works Perfectly with BigPond, one of my most useful extensions!
This extension (for Chrome) does not work for me with my Bigpond Cable service. I keep receiving ISP error occurred: 500 Internal Server Error (S8) However it works fine for me in Firefox with the exact same settings :/
Worked okay for a while with OptusNet then this month started giving some false readings and a ton of error messages. Thought it was an error on Optus' end but I checked my Usage from their site and turned out to be an issue with the extension.
Can you change the colour of the offpeek. blue to black is hard to see. make it orange or yellow. Please add functionality to monitor voip usage.
Absolutely LOVE this extension. I was a VERY loyal Firefox user for years, but now that this extension is available on Chrome, I'm making Chrome my default browser. The extension is excellent and saves me having to constantly log into my ISP account to check where my usage is at. VERY easy to set up and operate. I wouldn't be without Net Usage Item!
Stopped working.
Worked fine for me up until a few days ago, though I think that may be an Bigpond issue... Still, would definitely recommend (when it works)
great extension. was fine until a few days ago. not working with telstra bigpond now.
Not working with Telstra for some weeks now.
Works well with Telecom (NZ) and I found it very accurate! 5/5 stars!
