I find that there are two small improvements which could be useful:
1) logging router logins/logouts, as John's fork already does;
2) limiting the max login attempts from a specific lan ip (today one of my clients tried to login 75 times in 2 seconds: that should really be prevented).

What do you think aboout these?
Thanks.

For request 2, if you decide to implement it, make it an option like the firewall logging, so people like me that like the idea of testing for poor passwords can still have that happen.
 
Asus tried option 2, and it was causing so many accidental blocking that it got removed a few versions later. Some silly security software randomly scanning port 80 on the LAN, leading to the computer running such security software to be locked out of the router.
 
What about number 1), RMerlin? Could you add that?
Thanks.

Eventually, just never got around to implement it due to other priorities.
