For the devices connected to my home wi-fi, can I see how much bandwidth each one is using?

Thanks - Helen

Short of getting your own router, you can't!  Even if you get your own router with this functionality, that router may still not pick up everything (Mikrotik, Pfsense etc probably will).

The thing is, in most cases, you should have more WiFi capacity than you have internet capacity.  So maybe if you think you are having an issue it may be an idea to let us know what you believe that issue to be!

Thank you for the reply. I also posted under the heading of Low Performance Device, and I hope that that discussion will get to the bottom of my performance problems.

well, login to your router and watch the pretty graph move when you do work at home. does it fill it or not.

i find 100m/100m fine for general day to day activities and work.

there is a rare time when i download a new game and look at the time left then i think, it should be faster, so i dont have to wait 30 minutes...

but rest of the time, i dont really see point of having a faster net from ISP.

if they give it free, sure ill take it. but not for the money they ask atm.
