An example of data in a Log File.

02 May 2006 19:25:09 Last Reset 15 Apr 2006 08:29

4. Log file settings : click menu options > log file settings...
You can change where to store a Log File. To clear a Log file, click clear... then click OK.

Don't get confused between the term "clear" and "reset".

5. The pattern of a normal data in a Log File shows

15 Apr 2006 10:29:20 True ADSL Connected
15 Apr 2006 10:35:04 True ADSL Disconnected 000:05:44
15 Apr 2006 20:43:08 True ADSL Connected
15 Apr 2006 21:17:52 True ADSL Disconnected 000:34:44

If the power is shut down unexpectedly, the pattern of data in a Log File shows

03 May 2006 06:43:35 True ADSL Connected
03 May 2006 07:17:33 True ADSL Connected
03 May 2006 08:50:29 True ADSL Disconnected 001:32:56

In the data above, there is no Disconnecting data in a 06:43:35 connection, because the power is shut down. In this case you have to record total connection time manually and save a Log File.....Done !
