Router history on a RAX70
I've recently purchased a Nighthawk Rax70 for all of our little gamers at the house. I've gone through all of the settings and I cant find router history. Does the RAX70 not keep router history?

Not sure what you mean by "router history"
The router logs that show IP and the website it visited. My past routers had an outgoing log table that you could see the traffic/IP/website
I don't think the RAX70 has that function, though most newer routers lack that since they tend to not be very reliable. Often requires the client device to use the router's built in DNS server, and is not very good for privacy. Overall, many people will feel uneasy if their router was loggingtheir web activity in that way.
One alternative is to use a site like https://www.opendns.com/ after setting up a free account with them, you can then change the router's DNS settings to use the openDNS servers, and then enable logging on the settings area which will then log every website someone goes to. It also offers a number of content filtering options (censorship).
