Gargoyle Forum

Hi,

I have just implemented Gargoyle at home and would like to thank the Authors for a fantastic piece of software!

I do seem to have come across a small bug however with the Bandwidth Useage Table. The below is the data for one of my computers for days (I've only just installed the router).

The data below is for the same computer for the month.

As you can see the data does not tally up correctly. I have checked this for a number of hosts within my home network and they are all displaying the same behaviour. This issue also exists in the B/W Distribution page.

I will look into this right away.

Hi Eric,

Forgot to mention the following which may be relevant to you:

Running 1.2.3 on a WRT54G-TM

I've had a bit of trouble replicating this with artificial data (i.e. jumping the time forward artificially), but that doesn't mean the bug isn't there (just that it's hard to replicate artificially).

I've set a router up to see if I can replicate this bug over the next couple of days with real data.

Hi Eric,

I have a bit of an update for you:

The differences between the monthly totals and the sum of the daily totals has remained consistent for each of my computers in the network. (ie: each new day's total seems to be added on correctly - with the exception of the third decimal digit which I guess is probably likely to be rounding errors). So it would seem that the error happened sometime early on and has now remained consist. An update for the computer I reported previously is below:
