Re: Usage monitoring software for home network?

So this is not something you could get from your router? Using a computer as a gateway makes sense. It would not have to be anything powerfull would it? Would an old 500mhz PC do the trick?

500 MHz with two $10 network cards inserted -- that's more than enough.

There are plenty of free Linux solutions to make it work, including some that are essentially hard-diskless (they boot and run from CD and a floppy). Windows XP comes with Internet Connection Sharing.

Someone will hopefully reply with their favorite choices.
