I would like to pull a history of the internet interface connection status. Is there a comprehensive system log available for Orbi? The one on the Advanced - > Administration -> Logs page is just slightly less than useless.
Every time the router reboots, the logs get cleared. So that is frustrating.
I have noticed at http://orbilogin.net/debug.htm you can set some log options. It almost seems to suggest that if you insert a USB memory stick it may save them off. You may need to try differnt formats (FAT32, EXT2/3/4, etc) until it is recognized by the Orbi. You may need to find some free disk utilities.
Something to try. Other folks can probably provide additional guidance.
I have used a USB stick to capture LAN/WAN traffic many times. However, only the LAN and WAN traffic captures appear on the USB stick. The "debug" information remains in memory.
It seems that Netgear only developed enough of each feature to list it on the box as being present. I cannot think of a single one where I thought "Wow, this is really well done".
I took another look at the results of doing a Debug Capture. When the debug file is copied to my computer, there are LOTS of log files contained in "debug_log.zip". Although the "Orbi Log" that is available on the web interface is cleared when the Orbi reboots, many of these log files are not. I have no clue how to interpret many of these logs, but there certainly are a lot of them!
