Router diagnostic type thing

Post by gazzer » Sun May 20, 2007 3:16 pm

I'm not sure if it exists, but is there a program that you can run to find out which ip's on your network are using the most bandwidth? For example, so I can find out who is wrecking my amazing ping by leaving about 20 P2P programs running :P

IP Account. Enable it in the "Advanced" menu, and look at its status information in the "Status" menu.

The one that is already there - it just needs to be enabled (assuming your IP range is 192.168.1.x).

For IP Account, set the IP to the base value for yout router's IP range. If your router is on 192.168.1.1 then it should be 192.168.1.0. If your router is on 10.0.0.2 then the it should be 10.0.0.0. The IP should be the lowest for the range produced by the subnet mask and router's IP.

Ah, I see my problem here. I don't use the routertech firmware (sorry!) but I have the Sky modem, and apparently it only works with Sky's firmware on it. Any other ideas for non routertech firmware solutions, apart from advising me to flash it with the RT firmware? Its a Netgear DG834GT.
