Gargoyle Forum

Hello,

I noticed something the other day while looking at the "Status>Connected Hosts" list.

If I stay on the page and hit "refresh" on my browser, the number of "Recent TCP Cxnns" will increase for the computer or device viewing the page.

Also, the value will increase if I click on "Status>Overview" and refresh the page. It would go from 150/4096 -> 178/4096 -> 221/4096... etc.

I have tested this on all sorts of browsers, mobile browsers and operating systems.

I use a DIR-825 Rev. B1 w/ Gargoyle 1.4.2

What is causing all these connections? Should I be worried?

Thank you.

Mine does the same thing.

Could be a bug? I was doing multiple refreshes with no network
activity and the TCP connections kept growing.

You can do the same thing if you set the auto-refresh to 2 seconds.

I wouldn't worry about it.

This is normal, no bug, caused by the user viewing the webgui, the refresh rate on the webgui + clicking between tabs makes active TCP connections, even if you are not doing any internet/LAN activity. After some given minutes, the connections should drop down, but will never go away due to the refreshing of the gui and it reporting to you. Oh and you clicking refresh, only makes the connection grow and grow.
