    Is it possible with RISC OS to count the amount of data of the network? Or
    to record the network data?

    Yes in configure/network/internet/interfaces.status.

    To record traffic there is WireSalmon, but it crashes my machine....

    Yes in configure/network/internet/interfaces.status.

    Also possible at command line:

    ifconfig -a

    lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384
    inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
    ege0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
    ether ...
    inet ... netmask ... broadcast ...

    leave lo0 and the numbers at the end of the interfaces away.
    Add "info" to the name of the interfaces. E.g.:

    ejinfo
    egeinfo

    This should give something like this

    EtherGENET interface statistics

    ege0: GENET, motherboard, up

    Interface driver : ege
    Interface unit : 0
