Badwidth Monitoring

Hello,

I know this is not exactly an SBS question, but since I run SBS2k on my
server I thought I'd ask it here:

I want to monitor my WAN connection for uptime & throughput. We have a
cable modem & I suspect the line is fishy but everytime the cableman comes,
he finds no problems. Anyone have any ideas as to how I can generate hourly
bandwidth availability reports?

Thanks,
Shaq
