wondering if maybe I am missing something. The internet is working and webmon features are working but /tmp/data/bwmon is empty and web page is empty.

Try /etc/init.d/bwmon_gargoyle restart

Try one more command to be sure, so the whole procedure should be:

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/bwmon_gargoyle enable
/etc/init.d/bwmon_gargoyle start

Tried both of those to no avail. Should I reflash an upgrade? I went from stock firmware to Gargoyle. Everything else is working fine other than this, which is the reason I run Gargoyle.

1. :?: Do you use Gragoyle as a gateway (WAN on the Internet, LAN computers)? or as a bridge (switch)?
- but if you use Gargoyle as a bridge or switch, these features will not work.

2. :idea: As an alternative, try resetting the configuration to default and starting from scratch.

Yes, I use gargoyle as the gateway with the Comcast modem going straight to the internet/wan port on the 32X. That connection is good and fast 300Mb+ speed. I turned off wireless and connected 1 lan port to a switch and the switch to an Orbi 3 node network for wireless.

I did copy ethers and quotas over from my Archer c7 setup. let me try the reset option and start from there to see what happens before I copy over the old files. BTW, I dont copy them, I edit the files and insert the old content into the new file.

As far as I can tell, resetting the configuration means applying the sysupgrade firmware, correct? there is no other way to reset to factory that I see in 1.12.

Nm found it in backup section.

Yeah, found that. Reset and now it is working. Will port over the ethers and other stuff and make sure it is working each time after the copy/edit.

would have liked to know what is wrong but it is working anyway.

I have now found that when I paste my old hosts into the new file, the bwmon stops working.

I see two lines for gargoyle. One has comment to not touch/remove. the other one seems to have to be the line before it. I had pasted my hosts in between and that seemed to be the issue. hopefully that solves it.
