How to install YAMon on Asuswrt-Merlin ?

[letgoodgrow]

Hello,

I've been searching for a reliable bandwidth monitoring solution, but nothing seems to work.
I'm not sure if the issues are due to limitations imposed by Asus or if the available scripts are just outdated.
Has anyone managed to get a script like that to work effectively?
I've encountered endless loop of errors while trying to install them.
Any help would be appreciated.

On what router? What firmware release?

Have you tried installing dn-vnstat after typing "amtm" within SSH?

vnStat - [Release] vnStat-on-Merlin - UI, CLI and email - data use and data limit monitoring - R1 and R2

vnStat-on-Merlin - Release versions - R1 and R2 Update 18 July 2021: Upgrade! For ARM and AARCH-based routers, we've got some great news: vnStat-on-Merlin Release 2 (R2) is now available for non-MIPS devices. This version is based on vnStat 2.7, recently included as an Entware package. More...

Seemed to generally work for me when I tested it not long ago, and mounts a nice WebUI page for the stats.
Not sure what your goal is other than monitoring bandwidth, I saw there was also a Quota Monitoring script from Martineau here: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/edit-real-time-quota-monitoring-download-upload-data-used.50066/

thanks for sharing

I believe that the vnstat script uses vnstatd from Entware, and works independently of the built-in traffic Analyzer:

This is an implementation of vnStat for use on AsusWRT-Merlin routers. This effort was started to enable accurate measurement of data use in a local database (for privacy reasons), and as an alternative the internal monitoring tool, Traffic Analyzer > Traffic Monitor, which will periodically record false “17GB” usage bursts.

Please provide the steps your following and any screenshots where you get stuck.
