How to monitor bandwidth use of each device on wifi network

I have in my home a standard Comcast cable internet connection. I have it going from the wall to a cable modem, and from the modem to a late-series Linksys router, which provides wired and wireless networking. The vast majority of the users are wireless connections. For day-to-day tasks, this connection is fully sufficient for all my needs.

"Kind of late to the discussion but if you have one of *WRT firmware variants running on your router, my (free) usage monitoring add-on called YAMon (short for Yet Another Monitor) shows what devices are connected to your network and how much data they are consuming, when.

The data is aggregated by hour, day and month (within your ISP billing interval) and can be rolled-up into arbitrary groups (e.g., by family member or by any other logical grouping of devices). Reports are presented in nicely formatted HTML tables and charts.

YAMon can be downloaded from http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=259806
