hmm, a quick question.

Does internet tethering usage reflected in the cellular network data statistics as well?

I've tried tethering to my pc via usb with the phone idle (no application running) and i notice there is a few MBs increment for both upload and download columns.

dun think there is any app available to track the data usage

For ur case, u might use the data before ur data plan is been activated which can cost u a bomb for every single KB usage.

Or, u accidentally exceed ur pro-rated data for the 1st mth.

Term & Condition no 3

Data included in iValue Plans applies to mobile Internet usage only and excludes SMS, and other subscription based services. Data bundle is for local usage only. The maximum charge for local usage is up to RM250. While roaming overseas, the prevailing data roaming charges will apply.

wonder this can help u to reduce the RM430++ to RM250 onot
