I am looking for a software program to monitor per-computer internet usage behind an ICS configuration.
I am using an ISP which requires me to connect my modem to a single computer, not a router. I am using internet connection sharing to share the connection with the other computers in the house.
The problem is that my ISP is really picky about my bandwidth usage per month. I am using WatchWAN to count my total usage, but it would help a lot more if I could see which computers, specifically are the ones using the bandwidth. Ideally this program would also allow me to see a per-day breakdown of usage as well.
I realize I could install WatchWAN on each computer, but there are a lot of computers, and many of them don't want to junk up their computers with even more software. It's also not ideal because when guests come I'd like to know how much they use.
I've spent a lot of time on download.com looking for a program like this, but everything I've tried doesn't seem to give me a per-computer bandwidth usage. Any ideas?
I'm also open to more technical solutions - I'm a pretty advanced Windows/networking user so anything goes, really. Remember - it'd be ideal if I don't need to touch the other machines to pull this off.
