| monitoring software for wi-fi hello, im new here!
can anyone recommend anything to monitor a wireless network?
something that would show who's connected, how much bw theyre using, etc. the more options the better.
thanks in advance! |

| What model of wireless router have you got? Any router will have a screen that tells you who's connected, but it's unlikely that it logs per-client bandwidth.

Syslog or SNMP is the easiest method of monitoring a device. But like sbconslt says,
it'd help to know the exact make / model of of hardware you're running.

I have Asus WL520GC router.
The only thing I was able to find through the routers web interface was mac addresses of connected devices |
|
| Look under "Status & Log > DHCP Leases" in the left nav of the admin interface.
Also consider putting a custom firmware like DD-WRT »dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/ASUS_WL-520GC on it to gain more advanced capabilities.

Re: monitoring software for wi-fi See if there is an option to send logs or similar to an external device / IP.
Then you can setup a spare machine and run something like Kiwi Syslog Server
to get the device's logs.

Perhaps inSSIDer would work for your monitoring?
