software for detecting highest bandwidth usage
May 7th, 2021
i got all mac address in my house,
can i see which mac address/ pc using the most bandwidth usage ?
using software or another ways?
is it even possible.
tq btw
Your access point / router / switch will need to have a built in bandwidth monitoring … otherwise you will need to connect to each mac and pull the data from there.
this is my router

how to connect to each mac and pull the data from there?
meaning?
the picture is well and good, what is it ? Dlink 4200 ?
pulling the data :
Meaning : connect to each PC / Phone / Tablet and connect to the OS to receive the bandwidth data.
In other words : with your current model not possible … the router needs to have a built in monitor for data usage , after all the router is the one that does the work and knows which port / ip has how much traffic, this is where you can get your hands onto the data.
Buy a cheap switch and put it between your modem and your router. If you have wireless agents, then get a pricier access point.
i m using wireless. not using the cable btw. all hand phone and laptops are using wireless.
got any tutorials about it?
