Kamoj Kamoj information add-on V3 for Netgear R7800 X4S and R9000 X10 (Temperatures a.o.)

Ok, will check this out on next install. Ya, NG is kind of a mess these days in FW development.

I am not using that feature (except just one attempt based on NG support request) and have no time right now to test it more thoroughly so that was just a heads up message. Anyway agree thread might not be the best one.

So why do you post this in this thread?
I suggest you either make sure it is because of the add-on or find/start another thread.
That way you can reach many more viewers/helpers.

Another feature proposal. Might be good to have single table showing details of all connected clients. Something like /DEV_show_device.htm but with additional columns of signal strength and distinguishing between 2.4 and 5 GHz clients. Optionally connection speed.

Anyway current DEV_show_device.htm is listing only subset of connected devices.

 

[kamoj]

Which subset is that?

Looks like it's showing only wired and 2.4Ghz skipping 5GHz.

Which subset is that?

 

[kamoj]

Thank you for the information.
I'm too busy to analyze this much, but this is another Netgear bug.
You are correct, 5 GHz are not shown, and probably not devices connected through the VPN-server either.

Should be fixed in stock - or Voxel FW.

A quick and dirty workaround if you want to test is to run this command at the router prompt:

sed -i 's/parent.an_router_flag/1/g' /www/DEV_show_device.htm

Uninstall the fix with:

\cp -p /rom/www/DEV_show_device.htm /www/DEV_show_device.htm

Looks like it's showing only wired and 2.4Ghz skipping 5GHz.

Installed to address that ARP thing. Working great Thanks for you hard work.

 

[jsmiddleton4]

Still unclear to me if this is the router's issue or the Netgear switch given the other smart switches work fine. If it is the router, your add on for the router does fix the symptom, maybe those ARP cache settings can be tweaked by Voxel in the actual FW. Doesn't seem to be a wide spread issue so might not be worth doing.

"showing details of all connected clients."

If I'm reading that correctly I asked for something similar. This information should already be in the FW. Even a cheap TP Link my brother has will show you the status of wireless connected clients connection.

 

[kamoj]

I totally agree!
If you install my add-on AND my patch above (
https://www.snbforums.com/threads/k...x10-temperatures-a-o.49907/page-2#post-450340)
you get to see more than in stock FW.

Another aspect of this connected clients thing regarding status is being able to sort the display. My Asus routers be it Tomato or Rmerlins could sort as desired between alpha name ascending to descending or IP address, same ascending to descending. Same in the Static DHCP table listing.

Netgear's current display is sorely lacking.

I have not had any demands for this yet, that is why nothing has happened.
I'm being away now so it will not happen this month though.

Hi Kamoj
Any idea when we will have policy based routing? Bypass vPn for specific devices? Possibly Mac address related?

Also waiting for bypass VPN for specific devices via GUI. Will be very, very useful if/when implemented

 

[kamoj]

No problem, I've been using it myself for more than a year.
I'll release it with Voxel's help, soon.
Possible some minor bugfixes as well.
E.g.:

• A workaround for Netgear's bug when determining ext4 file system and better handling of USB-devices with more than one partition.
  
• Fix for the bug in DEV_show_device.htm described above.
