How to permanently disable bwmon?

Post by maxwolfie »

I have seen the instructions elsewhere but they were too technical (I have practically zero Linux experience).

Could someone please post a step by step guide for a Windows user?

Install the Webshell plug-in
Send the following commands

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/bwmon_gargoyle stop
/etc/init.d/bwmon_gargoyle disable

Is that permanent though or only until restart?

“stop” is until you “start” it again, or reboot
“disable” prevents auto start

Hence you should send both

Even after doing both, if I change any settings the bwmon turns back on?

If you make changes to the Bandwidth page, or to QoS, yes it will start again.
I don’t know if there are any others. If you have an example I can check.
