Geektool

Post by HarshReality »

Just for arguments sake or curiosity...

Has or does anybody know how I could display connected devices or bandwidth through Geektool on an OSX system... would make my life ALOT easier since I have @ 32 active connections on my home network and would like to kill whoever is hogging my pipe.

Do you use QoS to prevent any one device from hogging all your bandwidth? If not, try the following:
http://www.gargoyle-router.com/phpbb/vi ... =12&t=7261

Since Gargoyle does per IP sharing by default, it'll split available bandwidth equally between active devices to prevent any one device from hogging it all.
QoS Tip: Don't complicate your QoS settings. Gargoyle evenly splits available bandwidth between active devices as needed. Just delete all your classification rules and leave only one normal service class and you're done. No more arguing over bandwidth.

Yes, Ive played with QOS from time to time.. just actually looking for a way to get active router information from the system so I could display it externally on my machine really.
