Xbox Series X reports incorrect network bandwidth usage

Hi Naviv, my name is Oskayra it is my pleasure to answer your question:

If you set the refresh period to 1 day, the Xbox Series X console will collect bandwidth usage data for 24 hours and then update it in the Settings panel. This will allow you to see how your bandwidth has been used over the previous day.

If you want to delete or reset your bandwidth usage for a month, follow these steps:

1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
2. Select Profile & System > Settings.
3. Select System > Updates & Downloads.
4. 4. Select Bandwidth Usage.
5. 5. Select Reset.

This will clear all bandwidth usage data for the current month.

You can also clear or reset the bandwidth usage for a specific game or application. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

2. Select My Games and Apps.

3. Select the game or application you want to delete or reset.

4. 4. Select More Options > Game Information.
5. Scroll down to the "Bandwidth Usage" section and select Reset.

This will remove all bandwidth usage data for that game or application.

Regards, Oskayra

You may want to use the Report a Problem feature (Long press Nexus button), as I and many others have reported this issue and Posted
at Reddit XBox Insiders Forum for months now.

More reports provide essential data to solve this annoying issue, and hopefully a fix.

Just applied 21.5GB of updates to 3 games within the hour, and, afterward, Bandwidth Usage shows my current period usage as
469.7MB and summed-up hourly usage as 448.74MB.

So, to confirm, this is a known issue/bug, AND, a System Reset will not or may not fix it going forward for me, SO, it is recommended that I NOT bother with the hassle of performing a system reset and re-setup, and instead simply waiting for a forthcoming
system update that fixes past and future data tabulation and display? Is that correct?

ALSO, ON A RELATED BUT DIFFERENT ISSUE, just to air my annoyance with how it currently works, when there is an update available for a game, WHY does checking the size of the update require launching the game and waiting for the resulting auto-quit and notice?
Why isn't the update's size information more readily available?

As it says right there in the "game needs an update" notice, "connect time charges may apply", recognizing the reality that not everyone has unlimited data, and, if you are then trying to manage your data usage, isn't update size important to know without having
to go through hoops?

Another way of viewing the size of the update is to just start the update and let it begin, but then if you cancel it because once you see the size you don't want to burn through the data to do the update at that time, the Xbox OS is very likely to then uninstall
THE ENTIRE GAME, and if that happens, then you are required to re-install/download the ENTIRE game again.

For example, if there was a 14GB game update that you started because you didn't know the size of the update in advance, but then once seeing the size in the queue decided you didn't want to burn that amount of data allowance at that time, if you cancel it,
you'd then very likely need to re-download the full game again, which might require 60-100+ GB of data usage. This is crazy, and I wanted to point this out as well.

Thanks again for listening

"Xbox" is aware of this? Are you sure because I am going to contact my internet provider and I'm just saying if they tell me 5044185.42 TB was transmitted and I want to know what it was that you needed to received that
was necessary from my Xbox because that's a lot of data in only one month I don't believe this was an accidental glitch. As you will see in the photos 11.something one month 17.something on another multiple hundreds on the others but something special went
on around October mid November that for me Xbox transmitted 5044185.42 tb of historcal bandwidth data was necessary never had this happen about a 8 months to be exact. Not only that you can see its slowly increasing day by day. So Xbox if you don't mind
can you give a valid explanation as to why this is happening? I'm in Los Angeles California just for clarification purposes.

Hi,

xbox is aware of this problem and it should be fixed pretty soon in the next few updates at this time you can only wait for the fix
