    Does anyone know if it is possible to get a router that will identify each device connected and the amount they download per day and replace my current one.

    Im currently with imagine broadband and 31Gb was download this morning. I have no idea what downloaded that much.

    The only possible device is the Xbox which was swithed off but still had power to it.

    Willl imagine allow change of router?

    Reason i have rang them is there not answering, as usual.

    Yes its possible, no IIRC Imagine dont permit it, they keep the credentials for your unit and manage your service that way.

    The Xbox will tell you what its used.

    I think they will let you bridge their modem/router if you call them. So then you need to have your own router that can track device usage.

    Good luck there... you'd think that is a fairly basic feature ? It is not. You either need to flash a DD-WRT firmware and use an add-on to that or buy an expensive router

    Perhaps some of the higher end ASUS routers have the feature , but I am really not sure. The only router that I know has it for sure is the Synology RT2600AC as I just set one up ..
