I have a DSL connection that I am sharing with 3 roommates. When I agreed to share it I made it clear that major downloading had to be kept to a minimum or I'd have to stop sharing it because the speed would slow down to a crawl. Well things were fine for a while but everyones connection speed seems to have slowed way down and I need to know if its 1 specific person downloading to much. Is there a program that will show me how much bandwidth each person on my wireless network is using?

Thanks

Is there no way to do this? I used a small program recently to track my own personal bandwidth and it looks like it only accounts for 1/10th of the total. I'm guessing its just 1 person but if I don't have proof they'll just deny its them since theres 2 other people it could be.

Theres got to be some program that can track where the bandwidth is being transmitted to...
