MRTG is good if you know how to install Perl etc and have it run every so often. I tried it, and it broke twice, now I can't be bothered with it. It now shows my connection running at 70Mbps up and 30Mbps down continually. It seems to run a fortnight then break. Weird.

PRTG is easy though since it has a nice GUI to do everything.
Sorry to hear of your woes.

What about cacti ever tried that ?

ps I love MRTG as you can plug anything into it. Temperature monitors or any other metric that can be measured by a computer
