## What is Router Monitor?

Router Monitor shows Internet traffic from compatible FRITZ!Box routers* directly on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

The app connects to your router over the local network using TR-064 and presents current download and upload rates together with a clear traffic history. See at a glance how much of your Internet connection is currently in use.

Features:

• Current download and upload rates
• Clear traffic history for the last 30 minutes
• Native menu bar display on Mac
• Automatic discovery of compatible routers on the local network
• Optional DSL line-rate detection
• Manually configurable capacity limits
• Demo mode for trying the app without a router or credentials
• Credentials protected by Apple Keychain
• No ads, tracking, or user accounts

Try every feature free for 7 days. The trial does not renew automatically. Afterward, a one-time purchase permanently unlocks Router Monitor.

On iPhone and iPad, live monitoring runs while the app is in the foreground. On Mac, Router Monitor stays out of the way in the menu bar. Traffic data is read directly from your router and stored locally on your device.
