I just want to say I absolutely love pfSense! After going through so many routers I decided to just build my own... For the same cost of a high end consumer router I built my own 802.11AC Gigabit router that can handle anything without crashing every day!

Hmm, it looks like pfSense doesn't support the one requirement I have of any router: per-IP (not _interface_) statistics. Is this really such an unusual thing to want? I want to know how much traffic each device on my network is producing, in each direction. Ideally also: for suspect devices, I'd like to know _who_ they are talking to.

I recommend having a look at ntopng. I seem to recall that the package is available in pfSense (however it might not be available in 2.3 -- see the release notes).

Sounds like you're looking for the darkstat package, which is available in pfSense.

Awesome. I got a Qotom Q190PG4 and am up an running.
