C7000v2 traffic meter issue

I have a C7000v2 modem/router combo, and the traffic meter is way off for some reason. I compare it with my ISP and it usually is somewhat higher, about 100 gb. However, this month it's way off. I have it set to reset the counter at the start of the month. The total currently reads 175,922,403 gb, whereas my ISP shows 318 gb! There is no way the count is correct. Please see attachments.

Note: I just checked again and the counter is back to a more reasonable number (905.6 gb). I did nothing to the modem/router to change this.

    Hello, Randy, It might be a fluctuation in the area. Do you always get this kind of situation?

      Hi,

      Thanks for the reply. No, it's never happened before in the 6 months I've been  monitoring the meter.  My ISP reading as been consistent.

        Hello, RAndy,

         

        No worries. Is this one device only or multiple devices that experience this kind of speed?
