Title: DIR-825 can't view logs?
Post by: jm95037 on October 05, 2011, 09:36:17 AM

When I go to the "status" tab and click on "logs" I get a page that is basically blank...really it looks like a poorly formated HTML page with no content, even the places where images should be are blank.  I tried to printscreen and paste here but that doesn't work?

Anyway I need to look at the logs and can't seem to figure out how to do that any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
John

What browser are you using? Try compatibility mode for IE8/9. Does it happen with a different browser like Opera or FF?

Hi Furry...thanks for replying.

I'm running IE9 on a Win7 64bit machine, all of the other pages, etc. within the mgmt. interface work just fine, int's only the logs page.  I just tried as well on Chrome with the same result.  As well I have a MacBook Pro and tried on Safari with the same result...weird??

What FW version is currently loaded. I use Win 7 64 and Mac Book Pro with 10.7. I think I'm on v2.06 right now.

Ok, well I haven't used 2.05, mine came with 2.02 loaded. I don't recall having a problem with the logs though. I suppose you could either reload v2.05 or go ahead and update to 2.06. I might try a factory reset and see if you you can view the logs. If you have critical settings on the router, Do a save config to file before factory reset.
Besure to clear the browsers cache too.

Since your seeing this across the board on 2 different PCs and browsers, I presume there could be an issue with the FW. If you have critical settings on the router, Do a save config to file before doing the following:

Factory reset.
Update using the .bin file unpacked from the zip file you get from the Dlink web site.
Factory reset once more.

Can reload the config file at this point or check the logs and see what you see then load the saved config file.

This is probably the "status" bug that was introduced in the 2.05 firmware.  The bug is only seen when DHCP is disabled and wireless security is enabled.  The initial status screen is fine, but any of the options under status don't display correctly.  Just update to 2.06 to fix the problem.
