Most effective way to see what device is using the most data?

We are brand new to the HughesNet world, like Gen5 because we had TERRIBLY slow dsl (connection speeds of 15-40K), and were wondering what the best way to monitor our devices and how much data each uses.  I hope this is a possibility, because we have 2 children and one believes they are never using data, yet are ALWAYS walking around with their phone online!  The only way to combat that is to show them, numbers don't lie!  Thanks for any help or advice that can be given!

While it is still a work in progress (been rather busy around here) I suggest that you read the following topic:

 

https://community.hughesnet.com/t5/Tech-Support/Understanding-data-usage-data-loss-and-connection-pa...

 

It will list the "tools" Hughenet has made to track your overall usage, give an overview of networking in general and suggest that you purchase a router that tracks data per day, per device.
