Viewing Attached Devices

The Attached Devices menu contains a table of all IP devices that the modem router has
discovered on the local network. From the Main Menu of the browser interface, under the
Maintenance heading, select Attached Devices to view the table, shown:

For each device, the table shows the IP address, Device Name if available, and the Ethernet MAC
address. Note that if the modem router is rebooted, the table data is lost until the modem router
rediscovers the devices. To force the modem router to look for attached devices, click the Refresh
button.

Viewing, Selecting, and Saving Logged Information

The modem router will log security-related events such as denied incoming service requests,
hacker probes, and administrator logins. If you enabled content filtering in the Block Sites menu,
the Logs page can show you when someone on your network tries to access a blocked site. If you
enabled e-mail notification, you will receive these logs in an e-mail message. If you do not have e-
mail notification enabled, you can view the logs here.
