This is invalid syntax.

  • Where are the cron time parameters?
  • :warning: Remember - you cannot use @reboot

:spiral_notepad: But instead, I would suggest using cat /etc/rc.local

This is the part that you add in cron.
And you need to change the <script location> to the actual location of the script. Run a which wrtbwmon to find it.

Below you will find all the commands for what works for me using SSH.
NOTE: You have to install 3 packages to get it working and also start up at each reboot. You also need to do an opkg update to download one more package.

opkg update

curl -k -LO https://github.com/pyrovski/wrtbwmon/releases/download/0.37_ipv6/wrtbwmon_0.37_ipv6_all.ipk
curl -k -LO https://github.com/Kiougar/luci-wrtbwmon/releases/download/v0.8.3/luci-wrtbwmon_v0.8.3_all.ipk

opkg install wrtbwmon_0.37_ipv6_all.ipk

opkg install luci-wrtbwmon_v0.8.3_all.ipk

opkg install luci-compat

# No need to create a cron job, if you have made one delete it this will enable startup at each boot.
/etc/init.d/wrtbwmon enable
/etc/init.d/wrtbwmon start

I will be honest with you if I was having this problem I would start at the beginning again and start from a clean install, If you still have problems after that maybe you could ask the dev of the app's if they have any ideas on how to fix it.

I looked at your picture and was wondering if you installed luci-compat

Yes i installed luci-compat

14

At this point I would take the time to read all the issues open and closed for those app's it might give you a clue as to what the problem is.

If it helps I run this on a TP-Link TL-WDR4300 v1 and it works fine as far as I can tell.
Good luck figuring this out :grinning:

No, you didn't. You need to help yourself by following instructions and suggestions already provided to you.

  • You still have the same incorrect settings in Scheduled Tasks - it seems you didn't read/follow this post:
  • Otherwise your screenshots showed nothing more to assist - you already provided us this information

:bulb: I would suggest you follow the instructions and suggestions already provided. :wink:
