You should visit the following link to check your broadband usage Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd.. In this page you will find a link on top of the page called “Check Usage”. Click this link and it will open a new page from where you will be able to log into your account. Have your username and password ready before you visit this page. Enter your BSNL broadband username and password to enter your account and click the “Login” button.


This will take you to the user portal from where you will be able to check your usage. Go through the various links available to check your usage.

If you want alerts from BSNL when you cross your monthly usage limits as per your package, then you can register for free alerts. This will help you keep a tab on your broadband usage. To register you need to send the following SMS “REG <space> telephone number with STD code”. This will register your account for free alerts and you will start getting your alerts to the mobile phone from which you have sent your SMS. This is highly helpful because you need not have to go online to check whether your usage limits have been crossed.

That was good info. for BSNL users.But i am concerned about usage of netconnect.Will somebody guide me?

i am using home combo plan of rs 500 (2.5 GB free limit)
n it was shown in SAP selfcare portal of BSNL,
but today it is showing that there is no unbilled usage of broadband.
& when i sent "BBU<space>telephoneno" (without quotes) to 9448077777,
then sms from BSNL came which tells me that my free limit is Unlimited..
can anybody explain that to me?

i was searching for this information about my total monthly download for a long time....... thank you very much..........

Do we have to request a username and password for unlimited users?I just want to check how much data i use every month and i did not get any username or a .bsnl mail id.

1. Mention your circle/location. There are 5 sites according to your circle where you can check your usage.

2. Alternatively, you can use a bandwidth meter. Shaplus or Networx will do. Please note that it won't show what is in the portal, instead the actually value based on your PC.

3. Make a call to the local exchange. They keep your portal ID in their records.

@ h n s mani

The only alternative is to use a good bandwidth meter like Networx or Shaplus and counter check usage at portal at regular intervals. The above mentioned bandwidth meters when configured properly gives more or less same values as BSNL portal.

Hi Mr Dilip,

thanks for your quick rep and suggestion.But herein lies the catch.Shaplus.com does not connect to sdc.bsnl.co.in.it connects readily to data.bsnl.in which is the portal for Kerala and Tn circles. am in Mysore.I was able to log into data.bsnl.in thru shaplus.com from my friend's laptop at Thrissur.but when I tried the same from mysore it does not connect.The nuisance is this portal works only IN IE.

Use the bandwidth meter, not dataone tool. It monitors your computer's network adapter and check usage. Also try Networx, it has a graphics interface. Use both to make sure that one of it is not wrong.

Shaplus do not support SDC portal because no one was willing to give their password to the author to code it for that portal. You can mail him your password and request support for your site.

@ Prakriti

You have posted in the wrong section and hence no replies. Please ask here

Bsnl 3g discussions within the Mobile broadband

Are you using a 2G connection or 3G ? Mention model and make of your data card. If it is not purchased from any ISP, you can use most 2G and 3G SIMs with it. But if you got it from an ISP, you may need to unlock it before use SIM from another provider.

Also explain " chat ". Is it video chat or audio chat ? If yes, how long per day ? If video chat, data consumed varies according to the quality of video.

You can check the data consumption by installing a bandwidth monitor from Networx or Shaplus.
