    Scripts on R7000 with Xwrt-Vortex stopped working (fixed - ignore)

    I posted this problem on the LinksysInfo.org site as well but I had good luck here previously with the fine folks in this forum so here it is. I have a Netgear R7000 running R7000_380.68.4 Xwrt-Vortex firmware and all of a sudden my scripts stopped working. I have a script called...

    Scripts not running for cron - SOLVED

    ColinTaylor, Ah ok. I removed the "sh" and the broadcast IP - and it worked when run manually! Thank you! Unfortunately now it appears my services-start.sh doesn't run at boot time - only when I manually execute it. What should the file type be for the services-start file? I saved it as a...

    Scripts not running for cron - SOLVED

    ColinTaylor Thanks - I thought I had done that as I used Notepad ++ but apparently I didn't set the preferences correctly. I recreated both files in Notepad++ with UTF-8 encoding, saved as Unix files (changed extension from .bash to .sh) and uploaded to jffs/scripts with WinSCP and then via...
