I'm amazed every time firmware is updated that the log file still fills up with gibberish which so overwhelms the log that I never ever seem to capture any meaningful information or at least information I think I SHOULD see. As noted in this and other threads, it's always filled with
WLCEVENTD or
dnsmasq[307]: failed to send packet: Operation not permitted over and over and over and over.
Can you imagine users posting messages here in SNB only to have their message lost in line after line of useless (and it would appear usually harmless) information like this?
If it's meaningless and harmless, I wish ASUS would provide a checkbox to suppress this kind of information and let only important information be captured. If it's meaningful or harmful, there should be a way to diagnose it and fix it so our routers are properly configured.
As is, I never know if this means the router is in an endless loop with another device on my network constantly connecting and disconnecting (apparently that's not happening as every device seems to be working properly) or if one of them is attempting to contact a nefarious entity on the internet but the router is catching it and thus the
operation is not permitted. Unfortunately, the router's log file is filled with this same info over and over and over with no end in site.
Sorry, just ranting. Otherwise,
3.0.0.4.384_81116 seems to be working normally. In other words, my family can still access the Internet and TV etc. streams fine....
Still.....!
