Anyone else found their broadband usage meter has stopped updating?  Mine has been static for a couple days despite having my had my pedal to the data metal.

It seems to happen from time to time. There are other threads as well mentioning the same thing. 99% of the time the meter catches up with your usage after a few days.

Mine seems to have frozen from the beginning of yesterday.

Happened a couple of months ago for 10 days, never caught up though.

A reboot of the router usually fixes it short term...

Many times yes.
There are changes happening that "Should" make these issues much less frequent, its just been a long piece of work.

Thought they had one... theres one on Android.

But it will still be referencing the same database so probably hit the same problem..
