I have a Linksys 3G wireless gateway router (WRT54G3G I think), which I must say works very nicely indeed.

The one problem that I have is that I have no way of monitoring my internet usage. The router's firmware includes a traffic logging option, but this would log ALL IP traffic, including internal traffic. I need something to check my 3G usage against. I guess I could use the log and extract the data I need, but this is one helluva job if you consider that all I really need is one "you've used X MB on 3G/GPRS since yyyy/mm/dd" stat.

Anyone knows of a way to achieve this on the router?

I've seen some posts here about individual traffic monitoring etc., but I'm not really interested in this, I just want to see overall internet usage.
