    Solved WAN AutoReconnect Questions

    Hi, Just posting back here with a success story and to report back on the 'firmware' auto reconnect for WAN. I had a disconnect event just after midnight last night. The router did not recover itself like alluded to in the thread I referenced earlier (despite now having internet detection...

    Remote Log to external server

    Hi, No the routers firewall should not need adjusting. If you can hit the port from telnet it must mean your syslog host port is open. It sounds like a config on the syslog host. Is the service running, did you change the port in the syslog server to be 20514? Have you tried sending a test...

    Remote Log to external server

    Hi, It should be in realtime, or at least it is for me when watching the log in the UI and monitoring my remotes yslog, the entries always match. You mention that you are using telnet to send the message, is that for testing the remote connection, or have you set the port to 23 from the...

    Solved WAN AutoReconnect Questions

    Excellent. I made the changes above as well as adding a 2nd line for Reboots cru a "Reboot_WAN" "29,59 * * * *" "/jffs/scripts/ChkWAN.sh ping=94.140.14.14,1.1.1.1,9.9.9.9 reboot nowait" All seems to be running as expected. Thank you so much for your help @Martineau. When my router now gets...

    Solved WAN AutoReconnect Questions

    Thanks for your quick reply, I'm hoping you can help me debug an issue as the script is starting on reboot of the router as I can see the entries in the syslog, however it seems to have ignored by parameters. i.e custom ping location and nowait are ignored when the script runs every 10 mins...

    Solved WAN AutoReconnect Questions

    Thank you for your response. I think as there has been no answers to my questions setting up ChkWAN is the direction I am leaning. Internet detection is enabled now on my router as a DNS probe, not sure how it will recover if at all, but having 2 methods to check cannot be a bad thing. My...

    Solved WAN AutoReconnect Questions

    Hi, I have had a number of instances this year where my XT8 is up and running as normal, i.e it is serving the WebUI, Wifi and you can log into SSH, the GUI shows internet connected, but there is no connectivity on the external WAN connection. The separate modem is also connected and synced...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.5 GNUton's builds are now available

    Hi, Just an update from me. The build has been extremely stable for me and I've installed Skynet and FlexQOS. No crashes to report, although I have done a few reboots especially around changing the log location to /tmp as seen in my other thread. One positive side effect I have seen is the...

    Solved Change Log Location

    I have made the changes today @Yota and they worked a treat. No more writes to the flash for logging. I really appreciate the discussion from @ColinTaylor and solution from @Yota, hope others may find this thread and be of use to them

    Solved Change Log Location

    You are correct I am confusing that flag with emblematic, but I am pretty sure the directory was not visible on stock. @Yota Thank you for the nvram setting I will give it a go. Will the setting survive factory rest or firmware upgrade?

    Solved Change Log Location

    Interesting. Its definitely got the flag in the WebUI on my router, but I did a dirty upgrade from stock so maybe that has something to so with it. Its really useful getting your insights into this @ColinTaylor, I really appreciate the information as it helps me grow and understand the system

    Solved Change Log Location

    Thanks. You could very well be correct. However I do know that before flashing to Merlin when I ssh into the router there was no jfss directory. It could be my limited knowledge of Linux and perhaps it was hidden from the end user. If that is the case, what does the check flag for enabling...

    Solved Change Log Location

    Thank you for the detailed write up. I fully understand why its not considered an issue on flash wear now. However, it would be great if the end user could stipulate whether this activity takes place or maybe allowing us to move the jffs location to USB, ideally both options would be best. I...

    Solved Change Log Location

    @ColinTaylor Thank you. I tried searching for similar threads but could not find anything. Can you summarise why we should not have a concern, Flash has limited write cycles so if it is updating every minute like mine does I can imagine it would have an impact. Merlin even states on his Wiki...
