Monitoring data use by IP or device

I have a C7100V running the latest firmware (ending in .23). Is there a way to monitor data usage by device or IP address? Lately my data usage as reported by Comcast has more than doubled and I would like to know what is using all that data. The router is connected via ethernet to a NAS, a PC, a streaming device (Amazon Fire TV) and a Plume wifi pod. The NAS is configured to not have cloud access and has local traffic only. I have not turned the PC on this month at all. The Plume reports total data at less than 10GB per day and our streaming is for around 4 hours per day. I would definitely like to know which device is using up all my data. Any help would be much appreciated.

    Hello wizzard71


    You may have to look for some software to look at which PC is using the most data.
