Hi,
Re network diagram - Mish Mash / blended / spaghetti I think :p
Squid is installed on the Ubuntu virtual machine. Sorry forgot to draw that on.
The phone connects to mobile internet when out of the house, then reverts back to going via squid proxy when my laptop wifi is turned on. The phone detects my laptop and connects accordingly. The phone reconfigures to go via proxy when it connects to my laptop.
As for the TV - yeah my laptop needs to be in the house for that to work.
Internet Use - I'm happy to record websites called by 'user' so for example:
Tv=user1
Phone=user2
Laptop user=user3
Then each family member with their own user id /password.
I've configured this bit already
I have set my home internet router to only allocate my laptop mac a DHCP address....
I'll draw a better diagram later today.
I may have gone a bit overboard with the control and monitoring :s
Thanks

It isn't a network diagram; I'm not quite sure what to describe it as, but I don't even see where Squid is on there.

So, Squid runs on your laptop?
What are the phone and TV supposed to do when the laptop isn't there?

Define "use". What level of detail do you want to record?

Show us a rather more conventional network diagram, which shows how packets get to & from the Internet, and what filters / firewalls are in place between different bits of equipment, and we might be able to asnwer this.
