I've recently purchased a Netgear DM111P ethernet modem, and whilst I'm generally pleased with it, I'm disappointed that there appear to be no logs available for viewing in the web-based GUI. I do know however that the modem has a CLI, so I'm wondering if anyone knows of any logs that're accessible from that - and if so, what the commands are to do so? I realise that few if any people here will have a DM111P, however, I expect the CLI will be much the same as other Netgear hardware, albeit with a different set of available commands - so if anyone who has experience with any Netgear hardware has any ideas, I'd appreciate hearing them. Thanks!

This is the screen I use most - what information are you trying to extract

MisterW - thanks, but that doesn't work on my model. That's for a DG834, whereas I've got a DM111P.

I think it's unlikely that the Linux syslogger will be included in an embedded system, but you could try looking for a folder containing log files that might hold useful data. In full-fat Linux, the logs usually live in a folder with a name like /var/log. (I'm presuming that Netgear's apps might have been designed to write to the logger, which is not necessarily a valid assumption unfortunately.)
I have an old Netgear FR328 firewall/router, which has a menu for setting up logging, it's called 'log.htm'. Thinking along the same lines as Mister W, you could try looking for a hidden menu called 'log.htm'. If that fails, you could try looking for a folder containing the html pages for the device's internal web server.

With some embedded shells some of the commands are entry points into a single program file. In Busybox, for example, the 'cd x' command would acually be something like 'busybox cd x', and this is sometimes wrapped in a shell-script named after the normal command. As 'cat' appears to be working, try doing 'cat ls' and 'cat LS' to see if either display one or more lines of commands that look like a script. This might give a clue as to why the 'not found' error is popping up.
If it's a permissions problem, then it may be that the console user account does not have enough permissions and you may need to 'su' to root, or use a 'sudo' prefix on the commands. Which then raises the problem of what password to use. If you know enough about Linux to try this, then I assume you'll have some idea of default passwords commonly used by manufacturers. If Netgear have followed good security practices it will probably be a password that can't be guessed though, and you won't be able to get into the root account. (It might be worth doing some googling on this if you want to pursue it.) Unfortunately it is also possible that Netgear have deliberately broken the console user account, perhaps by deleting or moving key files, before installing the software into the modem, to prevent people doing just what you are trying to do.
