How many computer do you have on your network, are you using a linux box to bandwidth feed those computer or a router, if is the second(router)what brand is it?
anyone of those will be good, the only problem is that they need to be between those computer in order to learn the bandwidth usage on your network, if you have a small network, let said about 25 computers, mean that you have a router(linksys,Netgear, etc), well check which model it is, and download DD-WRT firmware and upload to your router, you will gain speed on your network, plus the ability to monitoring your network and a very simple way, now if you have more than 25 computers,way more than 50, then you go for those app. but in that case, you will need to load a computer with 2 network card, and everything has to go trough the box Walter Tocalini Xtremetechs, LLc On Wed, Apr 14, 2010 at 1:55 PM, Nathan England <nat...@paysonlinux.org>wrote: > Hello Hello, > > I'm looking for a program or something that can monitor my network as a > whole and tell me which machines are consuming all my bandwidth.
