Where is the Orbing Traffic Meter page?
On page 105 of the Netgear Orbi Manual, there is the topic: Monitor Internet Traffic
I have logged locally into the Orbi RBR50 and navigated to the section described: ADVANCED --> Advanced Setup
In my list with the latest firmware, V2.5.1.16, there is no item listed as "Traffic Meter".
I can see the very simple Traffic Meter in the iOS application, but I'm looking for something more advanced. Ideally, a way to report traffic by each device. over a day, week, month.

On my Orbi web interface Advanced Setup, Traffic Meter is toward the bottom of the menu. There is a scroll bar indicating that more menu items are "down there".
Alas, Orbi's Traffic Meter does not report statistics by device. Sorry.
One poster reported that his network was exceeding the ISP limit of 1TB/month and he was so desparate to identify which device was causing the issue that he purchased a $150 Asus router and install custom software on it which monitors usage by device. I found his description interesting, but not something I wanted to invest the money and time in.
Not what you wanted to hear. Sorry.

Thanks for the help. Bad UI in that no scroll bar is noticed until you actually try and scroll in that area.
