We are using Solarwinds http://www.soarwinds.net and love it.  It looks
at the Network traffic to and from all our routers as well as doing cpu
usage on our server and routers and keeps a historical graph of use..

If you want to find out whats happening on this connection and the rest
of =3D your network it's worthwhile getting to know how to use a packet
sniffer. =3D Probably doesn't fall into the "easy to use" category but
definitely worth =3D the time.

A good place to start is http://www.ethereal.com if your looking for a =
=3D
commercial application you could try EtherPeek from
http://www.wildpackets.=3D com/ the best of the bunch imho.

I have a problem with a computer on my network, i have swapped leads,
hubs NIC etc, but still the same problem, network hangs now and again,
slow access speed etc.

I want to monitor the tcp/ip traffic over this port to see if packets
are being dropped etc, how many errors also.

Does anyone know of a good easy to use software app to do this?

Thanks.
