Hi Frank, Sorry, I have forgotten some information: I use a linksys router with a cable connection. In Belgium, the data-trafic is limited, for my to 15GB/month by default. I don't know if I can setup that router to log the traffic. It's also not that accessible.
I know, this should be the best way but then , I have perhaps to buy a new router. Btw, if I should by a new router, are there any important advantages about accessibility/features/compatibility with mac products for a airport-router? Or , perhaps they are much more expensive in comparison with the linksys routers and the features they have or miss. best regards, William Op 21-mrt-2011, om 20:11 heeft Frank Carmickle het volgende geschreven: > Hello William > > You didn't mention anything about your network typology.
