Is there an application to log system usage that will enable me
to keep track of usage by individual computers on our LAN?
Our internet usage is limited by our ISP [Wildblue] and when our
30 day usage goes too high I tend to panic, and I receive
notifications. We are presently at 84%, within less than 3 gB of
maximum and it can take a couple of weeks of little or no usage
to reduce that.
I think the present problem was caused by a new iPad added
lately. It tends to get left on continuously and the user didn't
realize it was connecting and doing whatever while he thought it
was idle. By the time we identified the probable culprit we
burned a lot of b.w.
DD-WRT in the router logs some usage but not enough to be of
much use and their mailing list/forum is nearly useless for
problem solving.
So I am looking for a scheme for tracking usage by mac or device
address. I check usage daily but when I see a jump upward I need
to know what caused it, I always begin to think through what I
have done before panicking the whole family. Any suggestion
appreciated.
Bob
