Can someone please explain bandwidth?

[Youphoric]

I just got a lovely notice in my gamil saying that my bandwidth is at 80% and is about to be exceeded.

How does one measure bandwidth?  ???

[nallen]

what are you distributing?  DVDs?

[DownSouth]

Sit down.  This is going to take me a while to explain.

[Youphoric]

what are you distributing?  DVDs?

No, this happened after I made that "Apache" page on my site...


Bite me, DS

[BigDun]

Bandwidth is measure of how much data has transfered. If I am watching a video feed that is 300K then I am using 300 Kilobytes of bandwidth per second. If that video plays for 100 seconds then I have used 30,000 Kilobytes or 30 Megabytes of bandwidth total.

Bite me, DS

Either remove the page entirely, or block it from public view.  That will save some if you're getting close.  Better having one of two pages unavailable than the whole site.

Hahahaha!

[ignom]

My gamil is only at 25%.

If it's streaming content....  A 300K file will only transfer 300K.

Hmm...I'm looking into things and it looks like it wasn't just today, I need to look into what caused it.... 

I know part of it is my guild's forum, but aside from my PM's it's not very active, and there's hardly anything on my site...

Yes, when I was saying 300K I was meaning that the bitrate was 300K. If you have a 500 KB file that gets downloaded 100 times then you have used 500 K * 100 = 50,000K or 50 Megabytes of bandwidth.
