I have a Linksys WRT54G V8. I have a problem where our internet is both slow and our ISP gives us very junky modems that will cause slow downs occasionally. Due to both of these problems, I need the ability to see live the download and upload speeds of the devices connected to my network. This way, I can find bandwidth hogs and know if a slow down is caused by a connected device or by the modem. I installed DD WRT thinking it could do this, but it does not by default. I am a total newbie to this stuff, so bear with me. Can anyone help?

If you are running Windows, Networx might help:

Well I installed that, but it is only providing information on the computer it is installed on. Is there a way to get it to monitor all devices on the network?

If you look on this Web page, the author lists a picture showing exactly what I need. It shows the connected devices and their current upload and download. Unfortunately, I think that's Gargoyle and I can't get that to work on my router.
