A network usage monitor for every adapter on your PC

Windows has a Data usage page under Network & internet, and it is fine for one question: roughly how much did this PC use in the past 30 days? It will not show you today's total, how the days compare, or how fast an adapter is moving data at this moment. For that you need a network usage monitor that watches each adapter separately.

Network Adapter Statistics lays every adapter out as a jack on a switch panel. Ethernet ports, the Wi-Fi radio, a USB dongle, a dock, a VPN tunnel and Hyper-V switches each get their own port. A green link light shows which ones are connected; an amber activity light blinks with real traffic, quicker as more data flows.

Click a port to watch it. The panel then shows download and upload speed for that adapter, today's data use and a 14-day chart. Connect a VPN, unplug a dock or switch off Wi-Fi and the panel rearranges itself without a refresh.

Check network adapter speed and live traffic

Under each port is its negotiated link speed, the figure the adapter agreed with your switch or router, so a cable stuck at 100 Mbps instead of 1 Gbps is obvious at a glance.

Above the panel, the watched adapter's current download and upload rates are shown in bps, kbps, Mbps or Gbps. These are decimal megabits, the same unit internet plans are sold in, computed from the adapter's own byte counters over the exact time between readings. Update speed under Readings sets the pace: Every second, Every 2 seconds or Every 5 seconds.

A data usage monitor with a day-by-day chart

The chart titled Data used, last 14 days has one bar per day ending at Today. Switch its menu between This adapter and All adapters to see one connection or the whole PC. Daily totals are stored for 90 days and survive closing the app.

That makes it easy to spot the day a cloud backup or game update ran, or to keep a phone hotspot or capped connection under its allowance.

Find your IP address, MAC address and DNS servers

Below the chart, a details card lists what the selected adapter is using right now. Each row has a Copy button, so there is no need to read a long ipconfig printout and retype a value by hand.

IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
MAC address, written with dashes as Windows shows it

Who uses it

Home office workers

Confirm the dock's Ethernet port is the one carrying your call, not the Wi-Fi it fell back to.

People on metered data

Watch a tethered or capped connection day by day and notice a heavy download before the bill does.

IT and help desk

Read a user's MAC, gateway and DNS off one screen and copy them straight into a ticket.

What's new in 2.0.2

New: every adapter is a port with live link and activity lights
New: daily data use with a 14-day chart
New: gateway and DNS servers, and a Copy button on every address
Fixed: speeds are now true megabits per second
Fixed: the adapter list updates when adapters come and go

Questions

Anything else? Ask us

Is the speed shown in megabits or megabytes?

Megabits. Download and upload are shown in bps, kbps, Mbps or Gbps, the decimal units ISP plans and link speeds are quoted in, worked out from the adapter's byte counters over the time actually measured between readings.

Does Network Adapter Statistics run a speed test?

No. It shows the traffic already passing through each adapter and sends none of its own, so the numbers show what your PC is using right now, not the top speed of your connection.

Does it count data use while the app is closed?

Partly. When it opens again, traffic since it last ran is added to that day, as long as the PC has not restarted in between. After a restart Windows resets the counters, so only traffic since the restart is counted.

How much data use history does it keep?

Daily totals are kept for 90 days. The chart shows the last 14 days, for the adapter you are watching or all adapters added together.

Can I hide VPN and virtual adapters?

Yes. Turn off "Show VPN and virtual adapters" in Settings. System tunnels such as Teredo, 6to4, IP-HTTPS and WAN Miniport are never shown, and the loopback adapter is left out too.

Which details can I copy?

The IPv4 and IPv6 address, MAC address, gateway, DNS servers and the adapter's full name, each with its own Copy button.

How do I see data usage per day in Windows 11?

Windows' own Data usage page shows a running total, not a daily breakdown. Network Adapter Statistics records each day separately and charts the last 14, for one adapter or all of them.

Why does my Ethernet adapter say 100 Mbps instead of 1 Gbps?

The link speed under each port is what the adapter negotiated with the other end. A lower figure usually points to a damaged or older cable, a slower switch port, or a power-saving setting on the adapter.

Which versions of Windows does it run on?

Windows 10 (version 1809 or later) and Windows 11.

Is it a subscription?

No. Network Adapter Statistics is a one-time purchase of $1.99, and updates are included.
