Network Internet traffic monitoring?

$

Hi all.

I'm a layman, and I have tried a seach, to be bamboozled by the results.

Basicaly we are on 40GB fibre. We used to be on 40GB adsl, and we had plenty spare, to the point where our carryover was up to 200GB at one point.

We are hitting full allocation usage now within about 2 weeks, without any significant alteration in actual usage.

I am thinking there must be some method of installing an internet connection monitor somehow, that would allow us to view where all the data usage is coming from.

I recently hid our Wifi SSID, customised the name and changed the password.

What I can't figure out is how I could hook up *something/anything* to monitor traffic through the fibre connection, when 2 phones, 2 laptops are on wifi and streaming pc on lan attached to the wifi router, then into the lan of the fibre router.

Secondly, my partner is working over dropbox, not sure if this is a red flag for high usage?

Any help appreciated!
