New to the Group, so Guess I should have Acceprted way before as solution>?... SORRY..
THANKS for the HELP a;so, VERY much appriciated. With DATA-CAPS on my internet now, I need to pay a lot of attention as they seem to think I was about DOUBLE the use of the limit, but for the last 8 Months I was WAY below it. Never looked until they kept sending allerts, now changing Routers and setup in here all together, BOTH to Track and make a More secure setup in here.
