Bandwidth measurement

I have inherited a network with a wireless connection between two buildings.
I would like to measure the bandwidth utilization only on the wireless
connection. What tools are available to do this? Thanks

The easiest/fastest should be using 'iptraf', try a search on
freshmeat.net, if it didn't came with your distro.

So does iptraf, from trying netwatch, I found iptraf
easier/faster to use. But then this is of course personal
preference, the OP needs to try out.
