Re: Belkin Router log utility???

Is this the kind of thing you're after? http://belkin-extract.sourceforge.net/ According to the blurb "It will run on any platfom that Java is supports. This will log into your Belkin Router and downloads your security log. It automatically converts your log into a simple comma-delimited text format (which can be read by Zone Alarm and other firewall software)."

Bit puzzled, though, since my Belkin router's Security log page has a Save button which generates a text file in any case. What's more to the point is that there is so little detail available in the first place - it appears to only handle about 30 firewall log entries at a time ... Probably why it's so cheap

[Edit] In fact, I see the Belkin forum at http://www.dslreports.com/forum/belkin has no end of complaints about the general uselessness of the security log! Probably not worth bothering with, in other words [/edit]
