Is there a way to increase the size (capacity) of the eventlog.txt file? I am trying to troubleshoot a disconnect event, but by the time I get the alert from devicecloud, the events have been overwritten.

Please read this post, I believe it is what you are looking for: [https://forums.digi.com/56751/how-configure-wr21-with-external-flash-drive-store-debug-file?show=56751#q56751](https://forums.digi.com/56751/how-configure-wr21-with-external-flash-drive-store-debug-file?show=56751#q56751)

The eventlog itself is written to ram and is not configurable, also it is cleared on power cycle or reset.
