Download & Upload Monitoring

[UK_Wildcats_Fans]

Is there a way to monitor my upload and download usage over several days or weeks?  I want to evaluate my peak and average usage in order to determine whether I want to upgrade my internet package.

There isn't currently, but in the 3.2 update we'll be adding a feature that shows data usage over the entire uptime of the router. That should hopefully offer the information you're looking for.

I'm not sure the exact date we're releasing this as it's in closed beta testing currently, but we are getting close!

What specific data usage information will be available?

How much data has been used over certain time periods, by certain devices, by certain applications - you can really dig down and see what type of application/service has been used the most last week for example.

Will it give total peak bandwidth used for all devices?  I want to see what my maximum total bandwidth (download and upload) usage.  I will use this data to determine if I need to upgrade my internet service with my ISP.  I am mostly interested in the upload bandwidth.

Yes it will give you the cumulative data usage for any period you like within the last 30 days. You can just see upload if you wish to, it is very helpful for those who have a data cap.

Cumulative over what period?  Right now, I am paying for 300 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload.   I rarely hit the 300Mbps download except for downloading games, files, etc.  I believe that I hit the 20 Mbps upload a lot with multiple people working from home.   I am waiting to see how often, I am spiking at 20Mbps.

Any time period within 30 days, a day, a week, 2 weeks however you want to do it, you can select from some presets or define ranges yourself. 

If you're video calling then that it's possible but that would be around 2Mbps upload each so depends on how many people there are and what other upload activities they're doing

Thank you.  We are dealing with large files usually worked on locally that sync with SharePoint and backups.  There are certain times that we push 20 Mbps, but I don't know for how long.
