This is an odd quesiton...my RBR850 router and satellites installation is about a week old, running well...but one odd thing I noticed, I only ever have 1 entry in the log file that shows. Now, the only entry I have seen is issuing a DHCP address; I don't see any reason I should have had any other entries. I know today for example, I had three different DHCP entries, but when I looked at them, only the latest showed - what I mean is at 11 AM I saw a DHCP log entry for 10:30 AM; Yet at 12:30 I saw a DHCP log message from 12:00 PM ONLY; then at 1:30 PM I saw a DHCP log message for 1 PM ONLY. What happened to the other messages? Note I HAVE NOT cleared the log file (that gives a message too.) I have looked at the log on Safari/Mac, Chrome/Mac, and Edge/Windows, with the same behavior. Why do you think there is only one message that shows?

The most recent firmware seemed to fix log entries for me, logs fill up like normal now for since the update. All fixed on my end (so far)

Logs are all dorked in my Orbi... I never have more than 6 or 7. It is a known issue.

I have watched this some more - when I first reboot the router and go to the log, I see a number of entries - mostly the DHCP address issuing, but enough entries that it scrolls. If I come back in 20 minutes or so and log in and check the Logs again, there is only 1 entry. It sure seems like some sort of router bug.

Please let NG support know about this if you haven't already. Blanca_O Christian_R

Sure- I see the two names, what is the best way to tell them?
