Bandwith Query
Hi,

My office currently has a 2mb dedicated adsl line. However we often find that this isn't sufficent for our work. Fairly often the internet seems to grind to a hault taking a long time to load sites.

What I require is the best way to analyise the network traffic - enabling me to find out during these peak times who's utilising the majority of our bandwith.

Thus allowing me to present a document to my management with my reomendations.

I know there a several products out there that can do this sort of thing, but if any you have any experience or have been in similar situations it would be good to hear from you.

Thanks

Tom

What's the make and model of your router. It probably has some sort of logging features.
