Windows 10: windows 10 home as a network troughput dataloger

Hello
i have a problem with my internet provider and need a way to prove him wrong to get stuff fixed so i came up with an idea how to colect enough data to be sure the internet provider is being broken and not our network users.
As a school admin i am constantly being told that internet in school dormitory does not working at all. When i go to check there is one of two situation, either internet get back up and is running on full speed , or entire routing is disabled but pings to google go trough with ~30ms but no internet website is getting trough in the browser.
i am not interetsed on what kind of trafic is being routed trough and who is using it, we currently have 5 students in dormitory due covid and 2 computers for the mannagment so even with heavy torrenting it should not clog up like that.

So the idea is to place dumb computer with 2 network cards in bridge mode between internet provider router and our network and simplu pass all the internet trough it, i only need some kind of software to datalog current bandwidth use on that computer to pin point to internet provider when we had a bandwidth black hole, because internet provider claims we use 100% of the bandwidth all the time.
but if it is in fact a torrent caused i would like to trim it down later by some other means
first thing first i need to know who's right

any idea what software should i use?

:)
