This is not my specialty so bare with me. I am sure someone more competent than me would give good advice.
If the tomato is the main router / last point before the internet and the dd-wrt links via the tomato to the internet then yes tomato can monitor everything.
The newer tomato builds have extra monitoring features and I presume this would be the most ideal firmware to use for monitoring.
Not sure if you just want to see what is going on or have limited data you can donwload per month.
If more than this then maybe something like prtg or other ?? snmp monitoring software that links into the router can do it for you as well.
For testing visualware.com on of their free server type software is ideal for testing and some monitoring and maybe if you get the source files for it you can ipkg it and run it/ server directly on the tomato in OTRW or something.
There should be options in both dd-wrt and tomato that allows for external monitoring software to tie in.

I currently have Tomato and DD-WRT firmwares on two different Linksys routers in my home. The Tomato based Linksys router is my main router for the whole house. The DD-WRT based Linksys router has essentially been converted to a 5 port switch & wireless access point in another part of the home. Both work great and no complaints.
I was wondering if either firmware can totally monitor the website activity throughout my entire home network (that has multiple other switches in different rooms)? I'm looking to be able to get some sort of report of ALL the websites that have been visted in a given month (or other time frame).
While the Tomato firmware is the main router right now, I could switch it so the DD-WRT firmware becomes the main router right after my cable modem.
Is this monitoring feature possible with Tomato and/or DD-WRT?
