      I figure this is a setup question. I'm sure its been answered but I gave up reading posts that were close but didn't cover it. I have an Asus RT-N66R router connected to my PFSENSE device. Trying to monitor the amount of traffic each device is using but all I get is the IP of the router, not the individual devices. It's only for hardwired devices. My question is how do I make it so i can see each separate device?

          Noop.
          They probably read, and abandon.
          You have a router on the LAN of pfSense.
          All that can be seen from a pfSense point of view is : the IP of the router source, and traffic to some other IP, where ever on the Internet.
          It is impossible to see or know what device are behind the router that emitted that traffic.
          The same goes for your ISP : they can not see if you have one PC, or 100 PC's behind your ISP router.
          It's part of the concept of routing.

          So : the fast answer is : your question doesn't make sense - is impossible to answer.

          You should use a switch behind pfSense, and attach all devices to this switch.

          No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
          Edit : and where are the logs ??
