Most wireless routers have built in functions for monitoring who is connected and give you the ability to ban devices by MAC address if required.

What exactly are you trying to monitor?

All that PC and Laptop that link to my network ...i have an option to kick them off. I was keeping an eye to some hooker who lurk in the dark. They may be or might create future bottleneck on my network in any case. OK I try to visit Tenda site to check if there a program/software that enable me to monitor my network, still help is well appreciated. Thanks though!

That ability is built into the router. No need for extra applications just to kick people off your network and block them. 802.11n wireless devices have quite good security features (for wireless) built in. Make sure enable wpa2 and use a strong encryption and authentication pass-phrase and the "hooker" down the ally is very unlikely to get access to your network at all. If you don't use any kind of authentication on your network you deserve to have it hacked.
