That may be part of my problem with logging. SNMP was disabled.

I wonder what it wants entered in "Location?" The router
address, 192.168.1.1 ? I will try leaving it "Unknown" and see
if it changes the NTOP data on the F-14 computer. DD-WRT also
has a log display that has not been working, perhaps because SNP
was not enabled. I've enabled it now. There are a lot of items
to configure and not much helpful documentation.
I may be grasping at straws here but it might help.
Thanks,
Bob
