There are Docker images for both arm and amd. While I used a Raspberry Pi, the code should run on any Linux distribution. The result was an open-source Python script / Docker container, meant to be run on a Raspberry Pi, that exports data to Prometheus. It seemed like a couple others on Reddit were also interested in a solution to this problem, so I decided to give it a try. This would let me see what sites the devices were contacting with the Raspberry Pi home network monitor. Ideally, I also wanted to create a beautiful Grafana dashboard. My goal was to not require any special software, yet monitor the internet traffic for every network device. So… who knows where the traffic is going?
Plus, we have many home-made IOT devices scattered around the house. There internet providers out here advertise about 30 Mbps (down) and 2 Mbps (up).
This project came about when retrofitting our cabin in the woods to a smart-home. This open-source solution has been used by readers of this site for monitoring family internet usage, LAN parties, and more.

This post will show you how to monitor all internet traffic for every device on your network, without buying any specialty hardware. Instead, I tried to build a custom Raspberry Pi network monitor.

Many solutions to this problem require software to be installed on every device to be monitored. When trying to figure out why the internet is slow, it can be hard to learn exactly which device on the network is eating up all the bandwidth.
