Looking For Network And Internet Monitoring Software
Mar 28, 2010
I'm looking for some software that can monitor inbound and outbound traffic through my D-Link DIR-655 router by individual workstation. I'm running a XP machine as a server x86, with coldfusion MX (for our home website), and a syslog server on the same machine. The software would run on this machine. The criteria are:
1. I should differentiate between intranet and internet traffic
2. It should be persistent; that is; it keeps track of stats between reboots of server (software like active wall does not retain stats when server reboots).
3. It should also be able to run when server is in logged out state, either as an application or service, preferrably a service.
4. It should not cost alot.
5. It should be able to collect stats on all connected workstations, whether DHCP or static IPs, including consoles like PS3, Wii and xBOX360.
6. It should support XP, Vista and 7, in both 32 and 64 bit versions.
7. Preferably, no agent should be installed on each of the workstations (flexible on this as long as footprint is small). All workstations are 64 bit.
This is a home network, with 17 connected devices; windows 7 x64 x 9, Win XP x86 x 1, PS3, Wii, xBox, and 4 iPhones.

If you're a system or network administrator, you need monitoring tools. You have to know, at all times, the status of your systems so you can optimize performance and head off potential problems. Thankfully, plenty of tools are available to help you stay in the know about your systems. Some of these products are costly and do quite a lot. But others are free and do just as much and in some cases, more. I want to introduce you to five system and/or network monitors that do more than you'd think they could do. From this list of products you will certainly find one or more tools that will serve your needs.

I was talking to some folks who use Windows and various Linux flavors and on the subject of memory, they tell me they do not trust the built in Ram monitoring tools to report Ram usage as well as Linux does.
What do you guys think about this?
Is there anything to it.. if so, are there better free 3rd party Ram monitoring tools for Windows?

[code] I recently upgraded from Windows XP to Windows 7. Inside the bios of my computer is an option to use the onboard graphics controller or to use the graphics card installed on my PCI Express slot. If I select the PCI Express option, the motherboard automatically disables the onboard controller before it even reaches the OS and so it is impossible to extend my desktop. The only way to fix this issue would be a bios update. Anyway, here is what I did instead on Windows XP. I would just use the bios and select the option to use the onboard graphics controller. The OS would start and use the onboard video card and would then detect the graphics card (with the proper drivers) and detect the monitor attached to that card. I would then successfully be able to extend my desktop to the other monitor select proper resolution and even choose which monitor is the default monitor. Thus we have dual monitoring. Now that I have upgraded to Windows 7 I can't get this setup to work.
If I use the bios and select the graphics card option, then in Windows 7 the graphics card is detected (and installed with proper drivers) and the monitor that is attached is properly installed. Inside device manager everything looks perfectly fine (no yellow things), except that the onbaord graphics controller is not detected (but that is to be expected, since that also happens in the XP case). If I use the bios and select the onboard graphics card option, then Windows 7 starts up with the onboard graphics card (with proper drivers installed) and the monitor attached to that port works fine. However, it does not seem to detect the graphics card. Inside device manager, under displays it lists the onboard graphics controller and the GeForce graphics card as properly installed and working. However, it also lists a new, unknown video controller?!???!!? Is this the graphics card again? Does it need more drivers? I can't get the computer to detect the monitor on the graphics card. Apparantly this seems to be an issue with Windows 7. Both monitors successfully work on both graphics controllers (the PCI Express and the onboard), just not at the same time. I don't think this is some type of drivers issue, but I am no expert.

I'm looking for some software so I can monitor software installations so I can see what changes are made to the system during the installation and monitor what registry changes are made. I know such software is around as I used to monitor installations on my old VM a while back but I cannot for the life of me remember what the title of it is!!

I just installed a AMD Phenom II x4 925 processor. I have Speedfan 4.40, is that good enough? I have it on a Arctic Silver 5 with an Arctic Cooling Freezer 64 Pro 92mm heat sink and I want to monitor the temperatures as I run Prim95.

i happened to notice that whenever start my computer and check my boot performance in event viewer->Application and Services log->Microsoft->Windows->Diagnostics Performance->Operational, there are two events that are logged. First is Boot Performance Monitoring (Event 100) and below it at is Shutdown Monitoring Performance (Event 200). Whenever i start my comp. these two events are logged together at the same time.why shutdown performance monitoring is logged when i start the comp? is it normal for both the events (100, 200) to occur together? shouldn't the shutdown performance event be logged when i shut down my comp?

Yesterday morning, I re-seated my HSF and also installed an old DVD burner from my old computer into my newly built one (built on 11/6/09). It should be a pretty fast system (i7 920, 120-GB SSD, 6GB DDR3 OCZ Platinum...), and I was fine with the boot time before yesterday (though I think it was still closer to a minute), but after I started it up yesterday (post install), it took a long time to start up and seemed to hang on the "Starting Windows" screen.
I've done alot of researching, and can't quite figure out what is wrong, though maybe it has to do with the DVD drive I put in. I checked the device, and it says it is working properly and it says the driver is up to date.
This Error appeared yesterday in the log (though I just checked the log today). This error comes up as a Warning almost everyday in the event log (except 2 Fridays ago ?), along with Event ID 300 for most of the previous week.
Any ideas? The only thing that I can think of is to do a re-install of Windows 7 (64bit), but I'm a bit nervous about that.

I have done a full clean install of Windows 7 32 bit on a desk top and having major problems connecting to the net.
I have an onboard VIA Rhine II fast ethernet adapter connecting to a Thomson TG585v7 router. The router is fine as I have a laptop on XP connect to it on a home network.
The problem on my desktop is that although Windows 7 will find and connect to the home network the connection is shockingly slow. It takes over half an hour to load Google home page or the log into the router itself (i could draw them faster).
As far as the adapters drivers, i have tried the following 32 bit drivers with no success.
v1.09 (auto installed by 7)
v1.12 (from VIA's website for 7)
v3.84 (for XP and vista in compatiblity mode)
After reading other forums I have also tried the following:
adding in a random network address on the adapter
turning off the Remote Differential Compression
even disabling the offload in cmd prompt
And still no joy, can someone please give something else to try!

So, we have a network of about one terabyte of storage on it. It is normally connected to my laptop, a desktop and our Playstation 3. Obviously it connects via internet with our wireless router and such but for some reason it won't connect to my laptop? I have everything except a few programs on the network (Everything from my documents to my pictures to my other programs are stored on the network)...thus not being able to access it is a HUGE difficulty

I have had this problem sporadically for the last month or so (since moving to this apartment). I am on the network but it says I have no internet acces. Other people on this network seem to connect fine (although they have had issues to) but I cant. I have 3 devices, all of which cant connect. On top of this, when i restart the computer or disconnect and reconnect adapter, I get internet access for about 20 seconds, enough time to load a google search or one webpage. however inevitably it always returns to the no internet access status. I have tried numerous fixs including reseting winsocks, using a new adapter, clearing browser history, changeing to static ip and changing back to automatically obtained one.

So I have an HP laptop and I'm trying to connect to a Brother wireless printer that I got for Christmas. The printer is fine, it's connected and full of ink etc. My laptop had automatically connected to it but it wasn't working and an error said something like "error connecting over network". So I then proceeded to try and delete it and reconnect, but now it isn't appearing when I try and connect to a device. I'm sat literally next to it. I'm not good with computers etc.On the Conrol Panel it says I don't have network access: So I'm not sure what to do because I just want to connect to my printer.

I bought a week ago a Dell pc with Win 7 Pro 64 bit. When I connected it to the network (40-50 pc & laptops), I realized that when I am trying to copy from the network and download from internet, the speed is really low. I changed Speed&duplex from auto to 100 mb full, I disabled Remote differential compression, I updated all the drivers, etc but still the same problem. Does anybody has any idea what do I have to do to make this work properly?

Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium
ACER Aspire X3400
Nvidia Nforce 10/100/1000 ethernet
Cable internet
SB1502 Cable modem
When I try to connect to the internet, it just says "identifying" then says it is an "unidentified network". I've tried:
Resetting the modem
Checked all cables
Uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers
Disabled & enabled the drivers
It's set to automatically connect to DNS
Updating the ethernet with the latest from Microsoft
Ran ipconfig /release and renew
Tried another modem and new cables
Tried other houses with DSL & Cable internet
I installed a USB wireless device which worked when I tested it in wireless areas. But so far nothing has worked for the wired part. At one point before all this started, the internet worked intermittently and would work at other houses perfectly. So I assumed it was my modem or connection at my house. But then I plugged another PC into my modem and it worked instantly. So I know there is no physical problem with my connection, modem or cables.

I have a Sony Vaio laptop, running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit, Up until 2 days ago I had absolutely no problem using its wifi and/or staying connected to the Internet. Two days ago, however, while being on Skype, my Internet connection got disconnected unexpectedly. �With windows Network Diagnostics,I sometimes get "The DNS server isn't responding", and sometimes "Local Area Connection/Wireless Network Connection doesn't have a valid IP configuration"OR "computer is trying to use a DNS server that is incorrect or doesn't exist."Even with the cable I am not able to connect to the internet so I can't update the network adapter or fix the problem online. Looking at the 'Basic network information and set up connections' (in Control Panel - �Network and Sharing Center) I see my laptop (sometimes connected, sometimes however the line between the laptop and the 'unidentified network' has a yellow triangle on it) �and I can see the 'internet' with a red X on the connection line between that and the 'unidentified network.�When checking the 'Wireless Network Connection Status' it's showing �that it's connected, activity's showing 'sent and received bytes' but says 'no Internet access' to both IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity.I read lots of blogs and advice and tried many of those 'fixes' that were recommended, some of which were the following (shorter versions):�
- unplugging and replugging the power cable to the modem
- resetting the wireless router
-rolling back driver
- �obtaining IP address and DNS server address automatically for Internet Protocol V4 and V6
[code].....
None of the above worked. Right now under 'status' it's showing:
IPv4 connectivity: no Internet access
PIv6 connectivity: no network access
�I've used this network for a while and this is the first time this problem has occurred.�Be it network driver issue or a patch of some sort i may need to download, until i can connect to the internet, I can't fix this problem on my own. In the meanwhile no other computer or phone with wifi in the house has any problem connecting to the Internet.�I took it to a computer technician who said I need to reinstall Windows 7.

I decided to just post this as a new thread, as it appears to be getting positive results for most people. I highly recommend it anyway, as you will eventually encounter this if you apply all of your updates.For those of you reporting problems with your network after updating MS Office or installing Adobe CS3..If you are having Internet connection problems related to "Unidentified Network" showing and the "!" over your NIC icon, then this should take care of it: [code] If you do, stop it and disable it. It is actually the Bonjour DNS Responder Service, and I believe it is the cause of the "Unidentified Network."The Unidentified Network disappeared after stopping this service and a quick disable/enable of the NIC, restoring Internet access.I Actually just rebooted, edited this post, and then re-enabled the offensive service to see what would happen...Immediately after enabling the NIC and this bastard service, the "Unidentified Network" returned...stopped it, disabled it, disable/enable NIC...Internet back up and running and no "Unidentified Network." (woot - woot!)
I experienced this in both build 7100 and 7127...I am running 7127 now x64 - and discovered this fix just last night...so far so good just rebooted and then edited this post...I believe this fix will solve 7100 build issues too; however..I have not tested 7100 again yet.I also re-enabled Win 7's Discovery Mapping services, but always leave IPv6 disabled just because I am not using it.another two reboots, and a hard disk addition, and no problems with the Internet! - If you tried another fix such as changing the address of your network adapter, under "Advanced" - this is not necessary...I set mine back to "Not Configured." Everything is working fine as long as the Bonjour service is not running.. [code]

ACER Eee PC running Win7 with all windows updates. The problem is the machine running Windows 7 Home Premium intermittently loses "internet access". Where the bars are full, but the ! shows and there is no connectivity. The other Win7 machine is set to automatically install updates and is running fine, although it seemed as though I was restoring it every week or so to get connectivity.Back to the point, the machine in question is Win7 and all available updates are installed.Bonjour service is "stopped" (but it runs fine on the other Win7 machine), TCP/IP was reset, Winsock is reset, registry/temp files cleaned via CCleaner. Zone Alarm Free and AVG are running, but they were running this morning, yesterday and a while ago when it lost connectivity again. One time I went to bed annoyed ready to set the %^&* thing on fire, but in the morning it was working fine!
I'm not exactly a N00B, but I'm dying for an explanation or a fix other than restoring every time "internet access" isn't available. Mind you, this house is full of nerds...Android phone, two iPhones, Lubuntu, Win7 Basic, Wii...all wireless and a wired Vonage that all works great.I was a member of That Computer Guy forums for a couple of years and learned a lot from the moderators and know how much work you guys do to give us this free service.
