Having a look at what the QoS connection-tracker reports makes visible if the increased connection-rate is due to outgoing connections, so in fact it does contribute to getting an overview over what happens. If the log functionality in dd-wrt is broken, he has to put something with log capability in front of the router to track the incoming connections. Alternatively, it could be an idea to log into the routers console and place some netfilter/iptables-rules there which communicate with rsyslogd or similar on one of the local machines. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
