The Netopia D-Series records certain relevant occurrences in event histories. Event histories are useful for
diagnosing problems because they list what happened before, during, and after a problem occurs. You can view
two different event histories: one for the Netopia D-Series's system and one for the WAN. The Netopia
D-Series's built-in battery backup prevents loss of event history from a shutdown or reset.
The Netopia D-Series's event histories are structured to display the most recent events first, and to make it
easy to distinguish error messages from informational messages. Error messages are prefixed with an
asterisk. Both the WAN Event History and Device Event History retain records of the 128 most recent events.
In the Statistics & Logs screen, select WAN Event History. The WAN Event History screen appears.
