Broadband Usage Monitor

Is there any software out there that will keep a log of the amount of data I
up and download?

I have tired some software which claims to do this, however, it also seems
to log the data transferred to/from my other PC's over the network.

My broadband is connected to my network via a router, so all the traffic,
internal and external, goes in/out via the same NIC.

Ideally I would like some software to install on all the PC's that logs it
all, then have one master PC which can read all the logs and give me totals.

Is there a router that can do this?

Ta for any suggestions!

If your router supports SNMP then the freeware version of PRTG will do the
job.

The home version of BMextreme allows you to ignore local LAN traffic:
