RBKE963 - Logging device actvity

All,

 

Is there a way with the RBKE963 latest firmware to trace/log the inbound/outbund connections for a device on the network? My R9000 used to be able to do this - but can't seem to find it in the Orbi interface.

 

Thanks,

 

JAX

I don't believe thats supported on Orbi systems. 

There is a debug log capture for WAN/LAN I believe, routerIP/debug.htm

Correct. Orbi does not provide two features that some customers wish they did:

  • Tracking IP connections between internal and external IP's.
    (The underlying Linux platform maintains this information [which is the basis for Network Address Translation], but Netgear does not allow access to it. If the user could telnet or ssh into the router, this information could be retrieved, but Netgear does not support that.)
  • Keeping a usage record by individual device.  Customers ask all the time, "How do I learn which device is using so much data?" and the answer is, "you don't."
