I've got a Fingbox 2 here that has just been sitting around - it is basically a security device with parental controls so great for controlling kids internet use or keeping tabs on the devices on your network.

More information: https://www.fing.com/products/fingbox

 

RRP is around $210.00, selling for $100 with free delivery.

Possibly interested. So how does this work, does it sit between the router and the ONT?

No, it uses ARP spoofing to intercept traffic. Got one here too, it's a great device for keeping track of what's going on on your network, definitely worth getting at that price if you've got a network with a pile of stuff on it.

 

 

If you want an inline option, get a Firewalla, which does what the Fingbox does and much more, but also costs quite a bit more. For $100, @michaelmurfy's one is a no-brainer.
