Does Your Router Log Traffic?
-
My traffic for December hit a new record for me for monthly traffic, especially on the up. Over 3TB in the month of December alone!
My traffic for January as of a few minutes ago...shaping up to be another busy month!

Pretty much any router will log. You just need to send it somewhere.

No idea how I'd send these logs anywhere...

It's WRT-DD, it should have tons of options for that. It is just a part of your syslog settings.

Yeah, but I don't have a SIEM or anything to send the logs to.

Any UNIX box will function as a syslog server. But better you implement ELK, Splunk or get a service like Loggly. All are free at your scale. ELK is free at any scale.
