realtime bandwidth monitoring by device

It would be great if you could see realtime bandwidth per device for the netgear r7000, similar to Google Wifi and Eero. It would be a really useful info and diagnostic tool to see what devices are currently taking up bandwidth. It would be great if this was added to the router web administration page as well theNetgear Genie and/or Netgear Up apps.

 

I've attached a screenshot of how this feature looks on Google Wifi.

    Hello,
    I come from an Asus router, and this function was present.
    In a family with a limited internet connection, this is essential in order to be able to find devices that take too much bandwidth.
    We are in 2018, and soon in 2019, the lack of this type of function on high-end hardware is abnormal ...
  • i search a wireless router which can display such information in its interface !

     

    shall you advice me a model please ?

     

    if i can see which device use the main bandwith, i can manage myself the QoS by speaking to people and teach them :-)

     

    by advance, thanks.

  • Real time and historical would be great. Living under a cap it is important to know what device is using the data.
