After using GlassWire on my Laptop and finally realizing how usefull it is with HughesNet internet, being able to see what programs are using data and how much, how much data was used over a certain ...

I was attempting to use the Remote Server feature in GlassWire to show the usage from another computer. I was unable to figure out how to set it up to get the data to show. Only thing if I was able to get it to work, you can only set up one Server with the free version.
I was thinking about purchasing it if I was able to figure out how to use the Remote Server but then seen its $49 for 1 PC - $99 for 3 PC and $199 for 10 PC. I have 4 PC's but I assume the 3 PC version would probably work. It shows you can set up 10 Remote Connections, so I guess you can use the Free Version on other PC's and still monitor them from the main PC. Maybe even the 1 PC option would be just as good. BUT the paid version does not have much more usage over the free.
While I really find that Glasswire has considerable value I still favor having a router that tracks/reports usage by all devices and install the free version of Glasswire on the Windows based machines that I need really detailed reports on.
For my non-Windows items I can get pretty good details from the Router:
Samsung Galaxy Tab4:
And my Nook HD+
For me, that is enough detail to alert me to a rogue app on one of those machines.
The third party Gargoyle-Router Firmware that I have on my WD Router shows how much data was used by each device, but does not go into full detail of how the data was used. I am happy with just knowing exactly how much was use. Also it has a Quota feature where I can give each device a set amount of data allowed per day/week/month and when that amount is reached it will slow that device to download/upload speed that I set or shut down all internet access for that device. It works great on my Router. I am glad it is compatible with my Router!

Gwalk has an awesome router that montors everything (see images above). It's very cool!
