ModSyslogUI v1.1.0 [28-Feb-2026] - add-on providing System Log page UI filtering capabilities

[saison2023]

Thanks - the screenshots do not show any errors and I'm not able to see the attached file on my end (but that may be due to file restrictions). Regardless, I believe I found that refresh issue and have the fix included in the v1.1.0 BETA that I posted today looking for testers if you are interested

I saw the thread.
I can test but this will be "only" on one model (RT-AX86U). If you consider enough and useful, I can give a try.
I just don't want to be "a nuisance" if you were looking for someone with a larger routers scope.

No nuisance AT ALL. Glad to get whatever you can give. Please be sure to respond to that thread with what you will be volunteering to test. THANKS

Fair enough!
I currently run Scribe/uiScribe but your script with favourites/presets would be a much lighter weight alternative and give me most of what I need from time to time.
Will be watching with interest!

@Stephen Harrington - if you haven't seen it already, I have a separate thread ([BETA] v1.1.0) posted, which has preset capabilities. Hopefully you can check it out and provide feedback

Been watching developments in the beta thread with interest, but since I've gotten scribe/uiscribe purring along nicely with the latest updates I'm going to sit this one out for now, but very admiring of where you gotten to and best wishes!

Does this script work on all routers running Asuswrt-Merlin firmware version 3006.102.# ? I have the newer GT-BE19000AI running Merlin 3006.102.7.

I honestly don't know about the GT-BE19000AI and from what little I understand, the UI may be different, so I would suggest not trying it unless you know your way around the config / setup of that router. If you do decide to try it, the shell menu allows you to easily disable filtering which returns thing back to the defaults or just as easily uninstall.

Do let me know if you decide to try it and how things go

Tried this script a ways back when it was in BETA. Decided to wait until it was released so I uninstalled. Since then, I've update to MERLIN 3006.102.7. Went to reinstall ModSyslogUI last night and received the following:

Any guidance on my next step would be greatly appreciated.

TIA, Bob

So, I deleted the left over ModSyslogUI directory from /jffs/addons/. Still receive a failed installation message. It recreates the directory but it's empty.

New at this and really could use some help.

Thanks

Can you launch modsyslogui again, but first enabled debugging, then try the update option again, then exit the script when the error comes. Once that is done, can you scroll to where the error occurs in the script and graphics a screen capture from about 5 lines before the error to about a couple of lines after the error and paste it back it back here so I can analyze.

After that, uninstall modsyslogui from the menu, then download and install fresh again and let me know if that resolves the issue.

The error you are receiving is because it's failing to download from GitHub. In your previous post you noted the modsyslogui was empty, which indicates it's failing on the first file load.

I just tried the Install and Update options a couple of times, with no issues. Try the steps below and report back with your findings.

1. Can you access this link from your browser - https://github.com/kstamand/modsyslogui?
>> if not, what kind of error are you receiving and report back and there's not much more we can do until we figure out what's preventing you from access the GitHub repo.
2. If you are able to access modsyslogui at GitHub directly, then copy/paste the following command which will download modsysloui but not install it
>> /usr/sbin/curl --retry 3 "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kstamand/modsyslogui/master/modsyslogui" -o "/tmp/modsyslogui" && chmod +x /tmp/modsyslogui
3. after downloading it, change directory to where it was download >> cd /tmp.
4. from the /tmp directory, enter ./modsyslogui. This will launch the menu, chose enable debug, hit enter to continue when prompted, then choose install. If it fails scroll back to where the error occurs and copy paste from a few lines before the error to a couple after, and paste the results back here.

Hopefully this will help us capture and see what is happening

Run this to see how long it takes. I dislike the connect timeout of 3.

Now try with the timeout, please. Also added some verbose flags to the command.

curl -fvL --retry 3 --connect-timeout 3 https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kstamand/modsyslogui/master/modsyslogui -o /dev/null

What are your wan dns settings? Can you post:

Can you run this (I had edited my earlier post too late):

That 5.23s explains the problem, especially when curl is using a 3 second timeout. Why do you think Google DNS is so slow? Do you live in a remote area?
