Hi dont know if im being blind or if its not there, is there an option some where to view the bandwidth used per device,

I know if i goto Interfaces > overview > and look at In/out packets it tells me for both Wan And Lan totals

but is there somewhere lists it on a per device basis EG 192.168.0.2 has used 12/1GB 192.168.0.3 1/0.1Gb so on its not a major thing to have but it would be nice for me to keep an eye on which systems are using the most data

Thanks Ash

thanks for the reply should of mentioned im from the UK logicsupply seam to be US based though i can take a look at the specs of the systems and look for a UK based alternative lol.

Hi can some one recommend me some hardware to build a new OPNsense box

currently running it a server with dual quad core xeons (8 total phisical cores)  and 8GB ram as you can imagine this box is greedy on the electric and TBF mega over kill  spec too but it was just what i had spare.

The only requirements i have is obviously the lower electric consumption the better dont care if its intel or AMD (i do prefer intel better as you generally get a lot more performance out of lower power hardware but obviously this comes at a cost money wise)

it also needs to be able to cope with load balancing a 152/12 and a 65/20 Mbps connections i dont use any extra packages,

wanting to spend a max of £100 already have a HDD and at least 1 Gbit Ethernet card spare so they will save on cost, so looking for something with 2 built in Gbit ports or at least 2 PCI-E slots to put more cards in as i need 3 for load balancing

i was thinking something along the lines of a system with a AMD Sempron 2650 and a few gig of DDR3 ram,
these are Dual Core 1.45GHz chips and use about 25 watts, My mum has a system with the AMD Athlon 5350 which is the semprons bigger brother and she has no problem with HD vids youtube FB games or anything but im wondering if the sempron might just be a little under powered but i cant keep going on with the current system as its costing an arm and a leg to run haha

Thanks for any pointers Ash

Hi all I wondered if anyone can help me, I currently have a multi WAN set up as followed

WAN1= Virgin media 152D/12U Mbps
WAN2= TalkTalk 64D/20U Mbps

WAN1-----
               |
                ------- OPNsense ----- GBIT SWITCH+WAP
               |
WAN2-----

I use this set up because I like to use load balancing and failover on most devices bit having a few problems, both of these functions are working flawless but I have 2 instances where this is causing problems,

1st I have a plex server running but because of the multi WAN its causing issues for outside access I tried to port forward but it don't fix it because the 2 external IPS make it conflict, Can anyone help in telling me if its possible to set a static rout up for this system so I can exclusively send that system to WAN2 as that has the best upload. and if its possible a little guidance ive tried googleing and not found anything 

2nd similar situation I have Talktalk TV which uses IGMP on the TT network so obviously the set top box (youview) needs to exclusively also use the talktalk connection as it cant get the IGMP channels from any other ISP so again id need to be able to set a static route to the YV box,

These are both obvious problems with the load balancing set up (especially the TV ) because OPNsense will just balance it to the best available one

thanks ever so much for any help

Ash
