Buttons? Egad's... it is a new version even though it's labeled v1.0. Looks somewhat less disgusting than the previous version. I tried sending it some traps with NET-SNMP but couldn't get anything to appear in the logs. I was able to see URL's (in SNMP traps) sent by a BEFW11S4v4 router, which should be similar to the WAP54G. I can also see URL's using SNMPUTIL as in: snmputil trap However, one needs to first configure SNMP on the machine that's running the SNMPUTIL program. Once installed, you can also run: evntwin evntcmd to send traps from the events log.

Well... what are you talking about?;) I've claimed that what I want to achieve is REMOTE logging. I've sniffed eth interface again, and there is NO syslog/snmp traffic (for sure) during clients connection. So this must be AP-only problem, not my logging software. I don't want to use web-based log viewer on AP (at least, I can download this page regularly by script). And there is no possibility and need for testing "log-viewers" for Windows as there is no useful mgmt traffic from AP. Answering directly: 192.168.1.1 is my server, not 192.168.1.2 (AP), and there is no "viewer" software on this machine, there is only "logging" software. Page about enabling logging - which was provided by you - concerns Linksys router, not AP. Is there any WAP54G firmware version which is known (tested) to provide working snmp or syslog implementation=that sends useful information? Have you seen snmp traps or useful syslog entries on your eyes?:) Not my eyes yet... Best Regards, Marek Zawirski / zawir
