Hello Everyone! I work for a small company and I am looking for a way, simple way, to see where our bandwidth is being used.
Our ISP upgraded our wireless modem and since then our data usage has doubled! We have not changed any of our office habits to explain this change of data usage. We have a small office with 6 computers. The network consists of a wireless router, that goes into a gigabit switch and then out to the 6 office computers.
The information im trying to find out is where this data is going. Some days the ISP usage page shows us using as much as 19 gigs of data. We do no streamlining, no data uploads and no video or music. Our office is mostly visiting various websites.
IVe tried some different software options but nothing I have tried allows me to separate the WAN traffic from the LAN traffic.
IS there some kind of hardware thats not to expensive and fairly user friendly that I can use to see where the data is coming from and going to?
something to add between the wireless router and switch?
May I add btw I like the forum, I come often but this is my first time posting.
