Hi yall! I just installed YAMon on my router this past week and have straightened out the small issues I've had, but I something I haven't been able to figure out is if there's a way for YAMon to take the local traffic and either display it, or subtract it from the total?
Comcast is rolling out a data cap for me in the next month or so and I wanted to get an idea of what each device consumes and see if Comcast is accurate. I noticed yesterday on the daily usage chart that my Apple TV used several gb of data despite it only being used for streaming from my internal Plex server. I looked at the chart(attached) and see there is a local network row, but it only has - for the values.
Is this a quirk with this specific version? Am I missing some setting somewhere?
While <3Gb isn't much, it wasn't a heavy day for watching and I worry about this adding up on a particular heavy day or with 4k movies.
Upon further testing this morning playing a 4k movie, it is NOT counting the local data, so no issue here, I jumped to conclusions. but still would be curious as to why the local traffic is blank.

I have been trying to install YAMon and failing miserably, would you mind if I asked a couple of questions?
I copied install.sh to my router but a) I cannot access /opt (will not let me cd etc) and b) if I try to run install.sh it says file not found, if I try "bash install.sh" it tells me there's an error int he script. ANy help would be much appreciated!
So I may have got closer with YAMon - or I may have screwed it, we'll see. Under /mnt (my USB drive) I created an opt dir, copied the installer to it and ran it there, all seemed to go well.
I *think* YAMon is running, if I look under /opt/YAMon4/ there are lots of files, under /opt/YAMon4/www/ there is what looks like a master web page, what I don't understand is how I access the reports?
I have tried http://10.0.0.1/user/index.html and http://10.0.0.1/yamon/ as well as a few variations I dreamt up, some redirect me back to the router admin page others give me a 404. On an ASUS-Merlin router what is the correct way to access the YAMon data?
I would like to monitor my kids' web usage. They use school chrome books and I am not able to install software or modify their connection to use a proxy (e.g. so that I could install a local proxy server).
I have a Linksys WRT-1900ACS with original firmware. If I install DD-WRT firmware and YAMon, would I be able to:
Monitor which websites have they have visited, when and how long (daily reports).
For example:
8/29/20:
A. Local IP= 192.168.2.35 (=Kid-1): youtube.com total 3 hrs 15 min
10:15 - 12:15
13:00 - 14:15
etc
B. Local IP= 192.168.2.40 (=Kid-2): roblox.com total 2 hrs 0 min
15:00-17:00
etc...
I am also looking to see if there are any tools, services, etc that provide detailed traffic/website/server monitoring at the router level... I would think many may be interested. _________________ Linksys WRT3200ACM
