Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

It would be extremely useful if you could see historical/live data usage for devices.

 

Approach:-

  • Gold Approach - Historical/live data usage over given periods (akin to Google's Mesh units) for all devices would be ideal. Understandably a big request as it would require cloud storage of all data usage. So a big ask!
  • Silver Approach - Historical/live data usage for devices at least while the (Android/iOS) app is running would be nice. The app is clearly able to capture all data usage across all devices, so it could at least be collect and show all these values while running.
  • Bronze Approach - Historical/live data usage just for a device only while viewing its details would at least be a nice useful feature.

 

A graph could be shown with the usage axis self scaling to the highest value shown on it, which is quite a standard way to show data these days.

 

eg: Something a bit like this:-

 

ps: I know other options can be shown in the area used for these graphs.

WOW! Nice image.  It's been 6 months.  Let's see where they stand on this. I really wish they would!

@NeilF I feel like this is a deaf ears thing for TP Link , i have posted about 10 times in various other replies for the same feature, i am even ok with the lower of the three where i can just see usage per device , i had a bandwidth issue months ago and it took me almost 20 days of staring at the web UI to find the device using all my bandwith, i was days away from selling and switching to another brand... frustrating that the engineers just don't try harder here.
