Need help finding a tool for monitoring bandwidth

I work for a mine that runs a point to point wireless system. We have about 50 repeaters covering the entire site. Sometimes we have an access point get shutdown because of it being blasted by with packets by a piece of equipment. What I would like to find, hoping there is such a tool, is something that could tell us were these flood of packets are coming from. Right now we play a guessing game as to where the problem lies. Whether or not it is an antenna, cable or router issue. If you have any questions please ask so I can refine the question.

 

Hi there have you tried using something like Wireshark which can be downloaded, it's a Network Protocol Analyser which will help you find out where the packets are coming from, it's free too, not too sure we have it listed in MG though !
Yeah my mistake here is the link http://www.majorgeeks.com/Wireshark_d4449.html !

Good Luck

Were these enterprise repeaters? If so, then there should be an app addon for that. We use HP repeaters, (PoE) that our Hp procurve switches control. We can find issues that crop up with that.

But, if ye are not running that, what is the make/model of your repeaters?

Wireshark is nice, but since ye need to monitor all 50, it can be a pain.
