Tracking illegal downloads

KH95

Hi, I have several holiday apartments, with a guest network on my Google Wi-Fi. The guest network has its own password. One of our guests downloaded a film illegally (torrent) and apparently it was traced to our IP address. I have the exact date and time of the download. I can also see the MAC Addresses of the devices that were connected during the period in question.
Is it possible to determine which of the guests made the download from the available data?

Thanks so long for any help!

Short answer is no, I'm afraid. Google Wifi and Nest Wifi don't track the websites visited or collect the content of any traffic on the network for privacy purposes.
