Excess Downloading

I have wireless at my home and have three computers running off it. I am forever funning out of megabytes and everyone says it wasn't then.
My wireless is secure from anyone outside so how can I tell who is using up the megabytes?
 
Are you saying you have a monthly limit on how much you can download?

Just look in everyone history,see where they go.. By the way, whats your month limit?

I have 7GB and use it up in 20 days. It would be good to see something at sumarises each persons usage.
 
if these are people sitting on your router then its unlikely you will be able to see any log which show what they are downloading. If you could get onto there machines you may be able to look through there Internet history (like trizoy said) or search for p2p software. Clearly someone is downloading large files either through p2p or directly off http.
why dont you just change the wep/wpa key so they cant log on at all

Unfortunately it the wife and kids so I have to let them on.
I just want to be able to control how much they download.
 
Im curious amosf about your comment and tracking. What router are u using?
I mas download often. A tera is not uncommon in a month. after reading your
comment again i almost had the impression it was software related.

Ok........a search figured it it out.
