How do I monitor WAN traffic.

Modified on 2025-06-10 11:56:24 +0200

I have a trendnet wireless router with desktops, laptops and portable devices connecting through WAN. How can I monitor how much traffic is being used by each device. I am completely new to most networking so please be specific.

Thank you
