Version 1.1.8

[Eric]

New in v1.1.8:

• Add hostname field to tables in Connected Hosts section
• Option to display hostname instead of IPs in Bandwidth, Bandwidth Distribution, Web Usage, and Connection List sections (hostnames in QoS Distribution and Quota Use sections not yet implemented but coming soon)
• Fixes bug causing PPPoE not to start correctly after reboot
• Further QoS improvements (RED queues instead of SFQ)
• Support for Netcore NW618 Rosewill RNX-GX4 (Thanks to Spudz76!)

I am particularly interested in feedback on the PPPoE fix. Since I can't personally test this, confirmation that PPPoE is now working properly (or that there are still issues, if that is the case) would be much appreciated.

The hostnames display is great and working well for me. Can't wait to see it in the quotas too

Hi Eric,

A few things:
PPPoE seems to be working great, thanks! I did a soft reboot and did not have to manually force a connect (normally I do).

Hostnames do not work in Opera 10.50, they are working in Internet Explorer and Opera 10.10. They are showing IP's no matter what is selected.

Bandwidth Usage and QoS Distribution pages do not work correctly in Opera 10.50 (they work fine in 10.10). They freeze when loading and you have to hit the stop button to see even part of the page. The menu never loads. This is not a 1.1.8 specific issue.

Thanks for the hostnames though, I've been waiting for that!

I found with Firefox they did not show until I did a forced refresh of the page (Shift F5). Presumably some old version javascript or something still in the cache.

Ah, thx, that worked after clearing the cache.

However the QoS and B/W usage pages still don't work .

Eric,

What is the RAM usage goal for Gargoyle?

Seems like RAM usage of v1.1.8 is 2Megs higher than v1.1.7. Could be a problem for some folks with limited RAM. I would be curious if anyone out there has tried v1.1.8 on a WRT54GL and could report their 'top' results.

Here's mine from the WRT54G-TM.

Hmm, my ram usage doesn't seem that consistent. Mine starts out at about 14 MB and gets up to 25+ MB (I have a 32 MB router, Gargoyle reports 29.8 MB).
