Hi everyone,

I checked my internet usage this morning and for some reason I have uploaded over 1 TB last month 1 feb to 29 feb with a download of 400 GB the download is a bit high usually I get 200 for that and nothing more then 100 GB up.

Screenshot of both the web interface and Glasswire usage tab: https://gyazo.com/9fd72a181c047c49e74fbd52dd1a38fe like 2-3 months ago I installed Glasswire and saw that about 300 GB was from my own system but that doesn't even cover a third of all the traffic last month. I have asked my family if they have uploaded any data as far as they know. but noone seems to have uploaded any torrents at all. So I really don't know whats going on, any ideas how this is happening?

Greetings Beast

Your screenshot doesn't show any web interface that I can see but I would go check all of the PCs and devices to see if any are infected. Does your router have any type of reporting? If not, does it support SNMP? I have Observium installed on a Raspberry Pi that I use to see the bandwidth usage for my network devices (although it groups all wireless devices into one group, it still makes it easy to narrow down based on the access point they are connected to).

Never mind thanks for the reply but I found the culprit, my sister or her boyfriend downloaded a couple of seasons of a populair series and because they both aren't computer geniuses (don't really have to be with utorrent) they didn't turn of the seeding and for some reason my brother who is a regular user of that computer didn't notice the fact that utorrent was still running uploading at on avarage 4 MB/s spread across 5 torrents. one of the torrents had a total upload of 678 GB in a month and 2 of the major other ones had 581 GB and 170 GB respectively.
