I setup a small network of 13 PCs, three of them are in a office and the other 10 are part of an IT suite. All internet usage is for browsing and emails only, there are no large downloads other than software updates and email attachments. Large attachments are very rare.
Due to the very low internet use they opted for a 50GB ISP package as it was a good deal. This month the 80% limit was reached which is abnormal, I am trying to trace where this data usage originated. The hardware is a BT Business Hub connected to a Netgear unmanaged switch to distribute the connection.
Is there any free software which can monitor the network and record downloads from each IP? I think this month may have been a one off but I would like to monitor the traffic from now on in case the limit is reached again. I do not want to impose data limits unless strictly necessary.
Cheers
