Attached Devices Sorted by IP Number
I have a good number of devices on my home network. I manage then with static DHCP reservations and I wanted to be able to get an Attached Device display in the web ui sorted by IP number. The at...
I hope this isn't considered a completely stupid comment but I assume you realize that you can easily see attached devices in ip order on the access control page (advanced>security>access control) this gives status, name, address, mac, connection type. The only thing it lacks is the particular orbi it is attached to. Usefully this page also shows devices sometimes seen but not currently connected. Now since Netgear clearly knows how to do this easily why they don't do it elsewhere is a mystery, but at least it is here and easy to access without a lot of messing with the internals
Not a stupid comment at all. After I did the initial IP sort, I found it handy to actually be able to sort on any field. I added that in a second update.
Thanks,
Scott

My previously posted modification only wirh through v2.5.2.4. I have made the necessary updates for v2.7.1.60 and am looking for a couple of testers.
Tester much be able to telnet to router (RBR50) and have some Linux experience replacing files. vi is most likely method although netcat can also work.
If you are running v2.7.1.60 and interested in testing, please DM me.
After a bit more testing, I will most an update for the entire community.

I'm not ready to "take the plunge", however I seem to recall when I was doing "copy and paste" from Windows to Orbi that Notepad creates DOS end of line (<cr><lf>) and Orbi (being Linux) wants only <lf>. So I switched to Notepad++ which allows setting the end of line in the correct mode.
Or, maybe the extra blank lines don't matter.
