    Asuswrt-Merlin 380.60 Firewall - AC68U

    Yep - if you read my script, it does go to a log file, which I clean every so often. Hasn't caused any issues yet. If tcpdump doesn't "saturate" traffic on the port it is monitoring, then how do you explain why I can't stream from my Plex server to a client over the same port while it is...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 380.60 Firewall - AC68U

    Just an update in case someone else ends up trying this and reads this: I noticed that tcpdump, when active on port 32400, causes issues with my Plex server (which is using the same port to stream) when attempting to stream to a client. Seems that tcpdump is saturating the network on this...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 380.60 Firewall - AC68U

    Since others might be interested, here's what I ended up doing. Feel free to make suggestions - I'll probably improve on this solution over time. Anyway, I ended up installing tcpdump via optware. I've heard entware was better maintained, but since I'm only using this for tcpdump, I figure...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 380.60 Firewall - AC68U

    Bringing this back up to pose another question. If I have a client on Wifi and am sending traffic to a wired LAN PC, is there a way to capture it then? If not, then I will probably try installing a utility like tcpdump via entware on the router unless anyone else has ideas. I can't imagine...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 380.60 Firewall - AC68U

    So then I guess I will derail my own thread and ask this question. I have a Plex server on my LAN network. I also have an Amazon Fire TV with the Plex client app. I had an older WNDR3800 with DD-WRT, and on that router I implemented a script that would watch for any requests to the Plex...

    Ok - so even if I were to enable QoS, there'd be no way to see the LAN traffic in any way?

    Asuswrt-Merlin 380.60 Firewall - AC68U

    Ah that makes sense...then is there any way to see connection requests over the LAN network from one machine to another in some way? EDIT: And by this I mean on the router itself, like in a log file or something.

    Asuswrt-Merlin 380.60 Firewall - AC68U

    I am attempting to implement a wake-on-lan script which monitors the firewall log. I have the script in place, but I am finding that if I set the firewall logging to ACCEPT, it appears to only be logging WAN to LAN or vise versa. How do I get firewall logging to show up between two local...
