NAT aka "Game and application sharing" - where is the log ?

Hi, I have set up a NAT rule on my TG585 supplied by PlusNet (the router calls it "game and application sharing" for some unknown reason). It works.
Now when I set it up I enabled the "log" option and the GUI shows this as being "on".
I'dl like to inspect this log but I can't find where it is. I've looked with both the the web and cli admin tools but nothing jumps out.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks very much.

Re: NAT aka "Game and application sharing" - where is the log ?

thanks I didn't think that was it. I had expected a log of connections on that specific nat connection. Perhaps the log I'd hoped for doesn't exist?
the event log doesn't list any connections but it seems to list only today. I want to look at a history of the past ten days, when I know there were connections made because I made them myself.

Hi,
The GUI log is indeed not very long.
If you are happy playing with technical stuff, you can try the telnet log - see here for a load of useful info on these routers from one of the forum members - http://npr.me.uk - see the "save log to syslog client" section... which if you want all singing all dancing logging is a useful solution... if you know how to set up a syslog server, which I do not!
