Tracking download traffic

Recommended Posts

Me and my flatmate are on an Internet plan with a monthly 100GB cap, and I'd like to be able to track how much traffic is going to each device.

I don't want to log websites or anything, I just want to make sure that it's roughly even.

Is the only solution to install a bandwidth monitor on my computer?

Installing (a) monitor(s) is the easiest solution by far, even though it's easily manipulated, so no good in court.

Have you looked into open firmware for routers? Might do the trick if you can reflash your router with it.

If you have a linksys router chances are you can install tomato firmware it gives you granular bandwidth usage info.
