Internet Usage

[Pergola Fabio]

Guys , i have a monthly limit of 150 GB from my provider, i always exceed this, while i am actually nog downloading video/streaming, i just do basic internet surfing...

how can i figure out what device on my network is the most wan bandwith? (internet)
i have enabled traffic analyzer on my 86u device, allthough i dont think i can get a report per device thats using internet download

how can i figure this out?

thnx

bandwith monitor gives me the same result as i get from my provider, i see it for each day how much i downloaded
so the result is good in on asus
but i want to know the device(s) on my network thats using the download traffic

using merlin firmware here

after googling, i found this, its what i need

allthough, i see only on my RT-AC86U traffic monitor NOT, traffic monitor PER device like that screenshot?

what am i missing?

Take a look at Traffic Analyzer > Statistic

yes, i enabled that now, but that is giving me "network traffic" i think?
i only want WAN/internet traffic ...

That will show you what each device is using and even break it down into apps/services.

Yes, it will count any usage traveling over WAN

Look at the top of the screenshot you will see it says Asuswrt-Merlin which means it is Merlin firmware not Asus stock.

Merlin firmware can be found here: https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net/

His image shows the "per device" Traffic Monitor that Merlin added in the old firmware. That function does not exist in Merlin's firmware for the RT-AC86U because it is not compatible.
