Bandwidth usage not matching ISP Records

Post by leoniestar »

Hi all,
I have just started trying to work out which devices use the most data in our house and have come up with a problem whereby the data usage recorded by my ISP does not match that recorded by my gargoyle router (see attachment). Does anyone know why this could be?
Also, I am currently copying data usage for each device from the gargoyle router bandwidth table to excel for comparison? Is there a better way?
Thanks a lot!
Leonie

This is known but it should be close.

Gargoyle only measures traffic LAN to WAN

Because Gargoyle is a firewall not all traffic gets through

Great, thanks for your help. I've also noticed that there are a whole list of IP Addresses, and some devices missing from the hostname list. Any idea how I can work out what the IP Addresses represent?
