usage stats

I have just got a 3COM ADSL Wireless 11g Firewall Router and its
connected to Wanadoo 512k broadband. I can see the stats for usage
between it and my ISP. But I would like to see bandwidth and
download/upload speeds between my main pc over the ethernet connection
and also my Son's pc over his wirelss connection. I currently use
NetMeter which shows me my download/upload useage but I would like
this broken down if possible to each PC.

Any ideas......

NetMeter is only going to show you the usage for the PC it's installed on,
so install a copy on each PC.

If you want cumlative figures for traffic through the router, you can either
combine the data from the two copies of NetMeter or use SNMP monitoring
sfotware which can download traffic data directly from the router.
