Can anyone explain what I've posted below from my System Log?  The scenario was that I had the normal issue as everyone else and had to reboot.  Immediately after the reboot, I looked at the log.  The line that scares the #%O@# out of me is:

No Internet access policy is in effect. Unrestricted Internet access allowed to everyone

Here's the rest of the log that I captured at that time:

[INFO] Sun Jun 21 19:43:46 2009 Log viewed by IP address 192.168.197.119

------------That last entry was actually the first one after the reboot.

Any logical explanation would be much appreciated!

I'm relatively certain that the "No Internet access policy..." thing in the log is normal.  I think it means that there just aren't any restrictions for the users on your network in terms of them accessing websites.

Side note: Nice upstream speed :)

I agree, I believe you can enable/disable that function under Advance/Access control.. here's what the help file says about that function:

The Access Control option allows you to control access in and out of your network. Use this feature as Access Controls to only grant access to approved sites, limit web access based on time or dates, and/or block internet access for applications like P2P utilities or games.


I don't think you have anything to worry about
