Any kind of traffic-metering is only available in router mode. If the Orbi runs in AP mode, there actually zero traffic monitoring. Since I am running my Orbi an AP mode, I never even had a chance to look what the Orbi has in stock for that, but it doesn't seem to be too much, anyway.

    I'm in router mode. On the phone app and logging on to pc it shows overall usage but not per device from what I can see. Older firmware used to have an option from older posts I saw.

        Thanks DarrenM.  It seems like it used to maybe?  Just not sure why they wouldn't put that in there.
