Monitoring Bandwidth

[cycocelica]

Ok so I live in a house with 8 other guys (its a big house). Recently we have been having some trouble with our internet and have determined someone is downloading a lot of something (probably porn). I was curious if there was a app out there that monitored everyones bandwidth usage. If you need any more info let me know.

Kinda what I was looking for, although I'll have to learn how to use it.

I was thinking an app that lists the computer and how much bandwidth they are using. I dont know if this exists but I thought I would try.

I have not see an app that does what your thinking.. I might be wrong, the coconut app was found within 10 min google search ..


I know some 'keywords' to narrow the search down

Not sure if any of these will work on a mac, but here is a link to a list

This one is definitely windows specific, but maybe you have bootcamp or parallels running
