The monitor seems to keep losing data i can't check Dec 15th i guess i reseted the router and it was wiped, now my router thinks its the 17th (must have wrong time zone) but i was playing wround with settings and the 16th is gone, how can i save the logs to my PC https://i.imgur.com/B2L667t.png
 
You can only save the data to a USB drive attached to the router. You can also create a "network share" of the same USB drive so you can access it from a Windows PC. But the data file is not in a human-readable format so it's only of use to the router.

i see, so once i plug in the USB what would i do next, im guessing i have to mount it somehow, do i use putty or something?
 
When you plug in a USB drive the router will automatically mount it and it will appear in the various menu options.

Try it. It will become obvious.

Tip: Use the router's menus to create folders as required. Don't create them on a PC beforehand as this can sometimes lead to problems with permissions and the like.
 
OK, i ask because im new also i don't have a USB stick atm to try. thanks
No problem. This is the kind of thing you'll see when you have a USB drive plugged in and go to select a location:
