Bandwidth monitoring by device for Orbi
I'm coming from Google Wifi and could see how much bandwidth each device used per day, week and month. I can't seem to find that option in the Oribi system with firmware 2.1.4.10. It looks like it ...
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.
Orbi can only show overall use not per device.

Thanks DarrenM. It seems like it used to maybe? Just not sure why they wouldn't put that in there.
Netgear, please enable per device traffic monitoring for Orbi, this is important when troubleshooting or checking for infected computers or other issues. I have had this ability in all other routers I've had in the past but am disappointed it does not exist with my new Orbi RBK53 network. Thanks
