Has anyone found a good app that will monitor traffic going outside from my computer (and preferably the others, but i'll tolerate it from my desktop only), but ignore the general LAN traffic? I use RealVNC which is really bandwidth heavy so that does have a big impact on my log. I've poked around and searched, but I can't seem to see a solution for STB/ex-C&W people. I might be getting a SACM soon (providing they don't hit me with a new contract) for the speed upgrade, is it any easier with that?
Thanx.
