View Network Usage Information

The router integrates deep packet inspection (DPI) so that you can view the devices,
traffic categories, and applications that are using the upload and download bandwidth
in your router network. You can then use this information to apply your Quality of Service
(QoS) settings and optimize gaming (see Optimize Gaming and Customize Quality of
Service Settings on page 45).
You can view real-time information about all devices on your network that are consuming
bandwidth and you can view details about traffic categories and applications that are
consuming bandwidth for a device. You also view the total bandwidth usage across the
router network relative to the network's overall bandwidth speeds.
To view network usage information:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
router network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
