The example LED scripts below are written using the GPIO info for the Linksys WRT. Remember to change them for whatever router you have.

You can't use the GPIOS on Atheros chips (Fonera, Meraki, etc.) without PROC_GPIO or some other utility. PROC_GPIO is a driver, and thus it must be compiled for your specific kernel. Broadcom routers do not need an external driver to drive GPIOs.

GPIO Info for Linksys WRT

Pin	Direction	Name		Use
GPIO 0	Output	WLAN  LED  	(LED - wireless)
GPIO 1	Output	POWER LED	(LED - power)
GPIO 2	Output	ADM_EECS   	(LED - white, Cisco button v. 3.0+)
GPIO 3	Output	ADM_EESK  	(LED - amber, Cisco button v. 3.0+)
GPIO 4	Input	ADM_EEDO  	(Button - Cisco Button v. 3.0+)
GPIO 5	Output	ADM_EEDI    	(Unknown) Seems to cycle all LED colors disabled.

GPIO Info for Linksys WRT150N v1.1 (dd-wrt.v24_mini_generic)

Here is a short summary of my experiments with WRT150N v1.1 on dd-wrt.v24_mini_generic firmware. WRT150N has a SECURITY LED (the most right LED)

root@DD-WRT:~# gpio enable 5 #(SECURITY LED - off - green)
root@DD-WRT:~# gpio disable 5 #(SECURITY LED - on - green)
root@DD-WRT:~# gpio disable 3 #(SECURITY LED - on - amber)
root@DD-WRT:~# gpio enable 3 #(SECURITY LED - off - amber)

When you switched to gpio disable 3 (SECURITY LED - on - amber)

root@DD-WRT:~# gpio enable 5 #(SECURITY LED - will give you amber)
root@DD-WRT:~# gpio disable 5 #(SECURITY LED - will give you amber bright)

Per Eko here

Yellow cisco led on Linksys routers means that router got WAN ip. If you prefer it blue (white, ..) do:

Show VPN status/activity with SES/Cisco LED

I worked out this little script out for my WRT54G-TM and WRT54GL and I thought I would share here since its based from examples shown on this forum and the wiki.

The script requires that you set 2 options in your vpn config file:

status /path/to/file (example: /tmp/vpn-status)
status-version 2

For activity it parses the info in /proc/net/dev

Be sure to edit the first 2 lines (VPN_STATUS= and VPN_DEV=) of this script to match your settings.. then Paste the following into your Startup script. Code:

vpn_leds() {
VPN_STATUS=/tmp/vpn-status
VPN_DEV=tap0

# make sure status file exists
[ ! -f "$VPN_STATUS" ] && return 1
 
# Set initial Cisco/SES Led mode
AMBER='gpio disable 3 ; gpio enable 2'
WHITE='gpio enable 3 ; gpio disable 2'
BLACK='gpio enable 3 ; gpio enable 2'
eval $BLACK

LAST_ACT=0
while [ 1 ]; do
    if [ $(cat "$VPN_STATUS" |grep -c "") -gt 6 ]; then
      # tunnel up. White LED
      LED=$WHITE
      ACT_STRING="$(cat /proc/net/dev |grep "$VPN_DEV")"
      if [ "$ACT_STRING" != "$LAST_ACT" ]; then
        LED=$AMBER
        LAST_ACT=$ACT_STRING
      else
        LED=$WHITE
        LAST_ACT=$ACT_STRING
      fi
    else
      # tunnel down. All leds OFF
      LED=$BLACK
    fi 
    if [ "$LED" != "$PLED" ]; then
      eval $LED
      LAST_LED=$LED
    fi
    sleep 1
done
}
vpn_leds &

Reboot your router and viola!

Light off = Tunnel down
White = Tunnel up
Amber = Activity

You can change the behavior of this script by changing each LED=$COLOR line.

Response time for tunnel up/down indication for my setup is 60sec for client connect and 120sec for disconnect. I believe the disconnect response could be improved by changing your keepalive setting in your VPN config.

Mine is set to: keepalive 10 120

This means OpenVPN will ping the client every 10sec and assume the client has disconnect if no reply is received within 120sec. lowering the last value should improve the response time but be careful not to lower it too much as not to cause connection drops due to timeout

Hope this helps,

Update: Fun with egrep!

Here is an updated version that will monitor for activity on ANY tap or tun device that exists. Still only showing up/down status for 1 tunnel

WHITE='gpio enable 3 ; gpio disable 2'
BLACK='gpio enable 3 ; gpio enable 2'
eval $BLACK

LAST_ACT="$(cat /proc/net/dev |egrep "tap|tun")"
while [ 1 ]; do
    if [ $(cat "$VPN_STATUS" |grep -c "") -gt 6 ]; then
      # tunnel up. White LED
      LED=$WHITE
      ACT_STRING="$(cat /proc/net/dev |egrep "tap|tun")"
      if [ "$ACT_STRING" != "$LAST_ACT" ]; then
        LED=$AMBER
        LAST_ACT=$ACT_STRING
      else
        LED=$WHITE
        LAST_ACT=$ACT_STRING

Use this script
If you want to catch a better signal without computers.

Script not work in dd-wrt micro version

Linksys routers where this script will work :

- WRT54GL v1.0
- WRT54GL v1.1
- WRT54G-TM
- WRT54G v4.0

Linksys routers where the script does not work:
- WRT54GS v6.0
- WRT54G v5
- WRTSL54GS

has not yet been tested on other models

Discuss here.


Script Version 1

SES light Black.jpg - No signal or very weak

SES light White.jpg SES light Black.jpg SES light White.jpg - Low signal

SES light Amber.jpg SES light Black.jpg SES light Amber.jpg - Good signal

SES light Amber.jpg SES light White.jpg SES light Amber.jpg - Excellent signal


Installation is pretty simple:

1. Go to "Administration -> Commands"
2. Paste script in "Command Shell"
3. Click on "Save Startup"
4. Reboot router

Works great in Client mode and Repeater mode

To work in AP mode, you must put the mac address
