What is the Netgear router with most detailed Internet access log?
We want to log all Internet activity. What is the Netgear home router with the most detailed Internet usage / access log? Cheers.

Not sure exactly what you mean by "all internet activity". Even to what details of that activity you want?
You might try contacting Netgear Sales, via phone ((408) 907-8000) or e-mail (sales@netgear.com ) and ask them?
The R7000 has these options for instance:
Include in Log Attempted access to allowed sites Attempted access to blocked sites and services Connections to the Web-based interface of this Router Router operation (startup, get time etc) Known DoS attacks and Port Scans Port Forwarding / Port Triggering Wireless access Automatic Internet connection reset Turn off wireless signal by schedule

Indeed, it is hard to know how to answer a vague question like that, but one query that comes up from time to time is the ability to check the activity of individual devices on a network. In general this does not seem to be possible.

Thank you michaelkenward.
Can you explain more this: "...the ability to check the activity of individual devices on a network. In general this does not seem to be possible".
Can you tell me more? You think it is not possible?

If the question means nothing to you, then you can ignore that.
We still don't know what you want to monitor.

OK.
We need a new router.
We want the new router to be Netgear.
We want to know what Netgear router has the most detailed Internet access / Internet usage log.
Thanks in advance.
