Like others, I find it very frustrating to not be able to monitor usage by device through ORBI.
Comcast is telling me we are exceeding the terrabyte data plan, so soon I'll be charged $10/50gig. Our usage has spiked in the last two months but we have no idea what is caushing the spike and with so many devices to turn on and off, it is not feasible to isolate the problem.
Comcast is offerring new house networking products (xpods??) , so maybe we'll switch to this...but it is irritating to have had an ORBI for only 12-18 months only to not be able to track this problem - and basically render it useless. This is really poor design on ORBI's part. There are many posts on this topic, you would think the engineers would have dealt with it already. At this point, I've tried two Netgear products and while initially happy with the ORBI, this is ending badly. I'm not sure I'll purchase Netgear products again in the future.
