Netgear Router Questions
I bought a Netgear AC1750 C6300 Router and had a few things I would like to ask for anyone who may know a bit more about this specific one. This is it C6300 | Cable Modems & Routers | Networking | Home | NETGEAR
My internet service provider is comcast and I am limited by a monthly data cap. Is there any way I can view my data usage on my router? I have checked every single setting and page under my routers advanced settings and there doesn't seem to be anything of the sort. I have older modems and routers that are capable of viewing individual usage based on ip/device name and yet this brand new one doesn't seem to have anything of the sort. Comcast has a data usage meter but its very basic. it only shows my modem/router and a line that fills up. It doesn't display the specific device
My second question is if this particular modem/router is incapable of monitoring my data usage, what are some other options I could use? We have 3 PC's on Windows 7 and multiple phones/tablets/etc and having everything be monitored through the router would of been perfect. Are there any reliable programs I could install on the pc's?
Any help is appreciated
