Showing badnwidth usage by Mac Address?
Is there a way to sort the Bandwidth Distribution by MAC address? I ask because some devices that connect to my DHCP-enabled router don't have (or resolve at least) a host name, leaving a mix of nine separate IP addresses/host names for the 5~ devices that are actually on the network. I'd rather not get everybody to select an IP because I'm the only "IT guy" and many of these devices are lap tops that connect to other networks.

Go to the connection/DHCP screen on your router.
Assign each MAC address you want to monitor to a static IP address and host name.
This does not require any changes on the computers, only the router so it will not hamper the connection of these computers to other systems.
Then you can monitor by host name and see what each is doing.
