    Help with setting blocklists on an AC68U

    Hi I'v been researching on setting up IP Blocklists on the AC68U router. Initially I was using this site; https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin/wiki/Using-ipset But I couldn't get it to work. After much searching apparently the syntax is outdated on that link? I came across this topic...

    Permanently moving traffic.db and syslog.log over to a USB Drive?

    Sorry for the constant questions But it seems I've come across the message I mentioned earlier in my post when I thought I had got rid of it by rebooting. kern.info kernel: br0: topology change detected, propagating What does this mean? The syslog seems to update to this every 1 second.

    Permanently moving traffic.db and syslog.log over to a USB Drive?

    Feels good :) So basically just so I understand correctly. So currently any activity from the syslog will of course be written to the sda1 drive but not jffs correct? Only if the router is rebooted or the threshold size is reached? What would the threshold size be? Does that mean if the syslog...

    Permanently moving traffic.db and syslog.log over to a USB Drive?

    Update: Ok, after a reboot of the router, the GUI output is now showing the syslog correctly and it's copied over correctly to the USB and has synced up nicely :) I assume it's worked then! One question. Although the syslog has moved over to the USB drive, I still see it within the /JFFS...

    Permanently moving traffic.db and syslog.log over to a USB Drive?

    Right ok. I think I may have got it to work, sort of. So the $MYROUTER variable. You're right. I didn't change it for each I came across. Only for the ones you listed earlier. Do I need to change each one to sda1? Either way I've done that now. I haven't yet run init-start. To be honest, I...

    Permanently moving traffic.db and syslog.log over to a USB Drive?

    Thanks. Looks easy enough. Carried out all instructions. One small issue (or big). I don't have the syslog.log file anymore within the /Jffs directory :D I understand, if I reboot the router it should rebuild itself? I'm not seeing any output from within the GUI when logged into the router...

    Permanently moving traffic.db and syslog.log over to a USB Drive?

    Thank you ColinTaylor. After reading your posts I feel more reassured that there is nothing to be too concerned about with the Router's flash performance and longevity. At the very least, the AC68U comes with a 3 year warranty so it's covered ;) @Martineau, thanks a lot for the detailed guide...

    Permanently moving traffic.db and syslog.log over to a USB Drive?

    What is considered high activity? As I've mentioned, my traffic.db is around 3.5 MB in size and it got to that in under 2 weeks. On average I'm seeing probably 15KB of data being written to that partition every day. I'm not too bothered about the syslog as that is quite small anyway, it's the...

    Permanently moving traffic.db and syslog.log over to a USB Drive?

    Thanks for this. Much appreciated. Just wish I knew what it all meant and where/how to place it :P Can this be applicable to the traffic.db too?

    Permanently moving traffic.db and syslog.log over to a USB Drive?

    I think I may have done some more unnecessary writing to the jffs partition. So while researching this subject trying to see if there was a workaround, I came across a command posted by someone on this forum but it was for the syslog.log file. rm syslog.log; mkdir syslog.log I put that in and...

    Permanently moving traffic.db and syslog.log over to a USB Drive?

    Bump. Will appreciate any more input

    Permanently moving traffic.db and syslog.log over to a USB Drive?

    Ah I see. So at what point would it be a concern? Only because within a week, out of the 60MB of storage dedicated to JFFS already 3MB have been used. Later down the line if it starts approaching the 60MB mark what would I need to do?

    Permanently moving traffic.db and syslog.log over to a USB Drive?

    Hi all First time post so please be gentle :) I recently purchased an Asus RT-AC68U router and installed the Merlin firmware which has been quite brilliant. I've been learning about the features and what not day by day. I have a question regarding moving over traffic.db and syslog.log over...
