COuld try netStat Live (http://analogx.com/contents/download/Network/nsl/Freeware.htm) or Net Meter (http://www.metal-machine.de/readerror/)

Both show you live transfer rates from your network card - I prefer Net Meter myself as it records your usage and can alert you when youre about to go over your data cap :) (assuming youre only using one PC on the connection)
