RBK853 - Only about 8 Entries in the Router Logs

[vfromdc]

My log in the router only shows about 8 last entries. How do I get see more entries there?

Also I coudn't get Email working because gmail rejects it from logging into my email accont. Any ideas how to make it work?

Mines in AP mode though...not sure if there should be more entries or not...

Seems to be max limitation here as I log in from different PCs:

Yes pretty much. Right now it is showing:

Have no idea how the smileys got in there, they are not in the logs. Please ignore them.

[Chuck_M]

Silly question:  

Do you have the "Include in Log:" boxes checked on ADVANCED -> ADMINISTRATION -> LOGS?

What boxes are checked there?

[vfromdc]

Yes, all 'include in' boxes are checked:

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

VPN Service

This may be a candidate for a factory reset.  

[vfromdc]

Do I reset just the router or the router and the satellites? 

Also, I will have to do this when my wife is not using the system, she works from home.

[FURRYe38]

I reset mine yesterday and see only see these few enteries. Just reset the RBR. 

When copy and pasting, remove the MAC address value from the paste before posting to the forum.

OK, thanks FURRYe38.

But your router also shows only 7 entries. As you said, that may be the limit, which is strange. Typically I have seen hundreds of entries (I mostly used ASUS routers in the past). Not sure resetting will do anything if 7 is the limit.

[FURRYe38]

I don't either. Maybe something NG should look into.

I would just do the Router.

As long as you dont have a complicated setup, it is a piece of cake and takes a lot less time that you would imagine.

I would read up on the steps to perform just to be very clear.

Thank you. 

[KMDonlon]

I can confirm a max of 7 log entries, all entries we're logged with no maximum on previous firmwares

[FURRYe38]

Thanks for letting us know others are seeing this. Hopefully NG will review this soon. 

[KMDonlon]

Log entries started to work properly again, getting more than 7 again.... Not sure what changed

[FURRYe38]

Interesting. And no FW updates. 

[KMDonlon]

Very interesting.... puzzling for sure

[FURRYe38]

Seeing more in the logs awell since putting my Orbi AX back online yesterday in router mode. 

[KMDonlon]

I have never had mine in AP mode ever, only router mode... Super weirdness going on

[FURRYe38]

Ya, mines been mostly AP Mode. 

Wondering if something they can fix in the cloud services that the Orbi is tied too. 

[vfromdc]

Nothing changed for me, I still have 7 entries as before.
