Hello. Can anyone recommend a device or application that just monitors bandwidth traffic across my home network please? I have a bandwidth cap and for the last two months we've broken that cap and want to see what the culprit is. Thanks!

Note: I did a search here and there were a couple of posts but most were pretty old (over 10 yrs).

Wouldn't it make more sense to monitor it on the router, not end device? Just to be sure.

I agree 100% and ideally that is what I would like to do but it is currently not supported on the router I have. I'm up for the idea of getting an interim device that will help accomplish this as well and just looking for options to explore.

Thanks all for the suggestions! Much appreciated.
