Pulp Free: Status » linksys router http://status.pulpfree.org Thu, 12 Jan 2012 22:13:05 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 Cacti & IPTables http://status.pulpfree.org/pfs/11 http://status.pulpfree.org/pfs/11#comments Sat, 21 Jul 2007 14:25:05 +0000 Dave http://status.pulpfree.org/pfs/11 I came across a few more ideas mostly by accident on how to track bandwidth from my router. One of the issues I’ve had with my home network is that while I can monitor devices (such as my PowerConnet 2716 & Linksys router) – I don’t get visibility into my virtual devices or devices being secondary routers (like in my Media Lounge). They all come lumped together. Wel – now I’m a little bit closer to seeing what’s going on by using IPTables on my Tomato-based Linksys. With a few more scripts added and some more templates – I’m now able to see Internet usage for any of the devices on my network.

This is probably the best I’m going to get for a while – as I’m not going to be able to monitor those devices on my LAN unless they all tie back to a port on my router.

I suppose I do need to start getting some of these scripts available at some time…

Enjoy!

The WGET that I use to fetch the status file from my home server doesn’t work with timeouts (who knows why… just never has…) So since my network connection to the Internet has also been down – the available connections start piling up on my hosting server and eventually all of the Web sites stop work. Nice, huh?

So until I get my scripts changed around to account for this problem, there won’t be any updates on the Linksys router or the Washboard server. I’ll get it up eventually! I’m hoping to actually keep the Web sites running more than I need to see the zero percent utilization of my routers!
