Viewing Attached Devices

The Attached Devices menu contains a table of all IP devices that the router has discovered on the
local network. From the Main Menu of the browser interface, under the Maintenance heading,
select Attached Devices to view the table, shown in

For each device, the table shows the IP address, Device Name if available, and the Ethernet MAC
address. Note that if the router is rebooted, the table data is lost until the router rediscovers the
devices. To force the router to look for attached devices, click the Refresh button.

Viewing, Selecting, and Saving Logged Information

The router will log security-related events such as denied incoming service requests, hacker
probes, and administrator logins. If you enabled content filtering in the Block Sites menu, the Logs
page can show you when someone on your network tries to access a blocked site. If you enabled
e-mail notification, you will receive these logs in an e-mail message. If you do not have e-mail
notification enabled, you can view the logs here.

An example of the logs file is shown below.
