Well my story is... that i have Broadband as most of us here do! and since broadband is kinda Expensive 45$ month for regular and 75$ for Extra highspeed witch is the one i have... 6.9Mbs DL , 378Kbs UP. well i decided to share this precious bandwidht with my neighbours via Lan (cable, wireless) they pay me 20$ month for access and im happy
shh...dont tell anyone well is there a way so that i can retrieve the routers ( outgoing traffic information ) and save it to a log on my computer? im using a linksys BEFSR41 and i can perfectly see the log is i do this:
is there a way that i could set a cron job to retreive that webpage and save it to disk every say 60 seconds or 30 secs
so that i can latter see what was going on on the network!!

No I would have said the opposite. I think it would let you. Try to see if you can get the file in interactive mode with lynx:
lynx http://10.192.168.254/outLogTable.htm
Theirs a logviewer available for linksys routers albeit only for windows, however I a quick search on snmp blah,blah and I've seen suggestions of using snmptrapd which should be able to view logs/traffic
snmptrapd might be worth a bit of investigation either way.
i used my real password for the routers and since the router has no login name i use none for it and it still works... the routers just ignores the none and uses my pass
