I want to monitor bandwidth usage (both upload and download) on my router by each connected device for all devices that connect.

Hi,

You can use the SNMP Traffic Sensor to monitor the interfaces of your router. If you want to add a sensor for each device which is plugged in for the first time, you can use the Auto-Discovery and schedule when the discovery should run.

This will work with all auto-discovery settings:

  • Automatic device identification (standard, recommended)
  • Automatic device identification (detailed, may create many sensors)
  • Automatic sensor creation using specific device template(s) (after creating a template with the SNMP Traffic Sensor)

PRTG will create a new sensor if there was any traffic on the interface.

Best regards
