iftop - how to select a wireless USB device

iftop - how to select a wireless USB device

I want to monitor my internet traffic, thinking of switching ISPs. I want
to monitor and log my traffic. iftop looks like a good option for the
(correct me if I'm wrong)
The problem is that my machine is using a USB wireless card. iftop will
default to eth0. What command do I use to listen in on my wireless USB
card traffic?
I'm running Ubuntu 12.4, here is my lspci output:
