Digging through the forum and files via SSH now - I'm unable to find anything useful. Would love to know and see these logs too

Closest I've come is in /tmp/ath0.ap_bss

ignore_file_errors=1
logger_syslog=-1
logger_syslog_level=2
logger_stdout=-1
logger_stdout_level=2
debug=0
dump_file=/tmp/hostapd.dump
ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd
ctrl_interface_group=0
ssid="XXXXXXXX"
dtim_period=2
max_num_sta=256
ignore_broadcast_ssid=0
wme_enabled=0
ieee8021x=0
eapol_version=2
eapol_key_index_workaround=0
eap_server=1
eap_user_file=/tmp/hostapd.eap_user
wps_disable=1
wps_upnp_disable=1
auth_algs=1
wpa=3
wpa_passphrase="XXXXXX"
wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
wpa_pairwise=CCMP TKIP
wpa_group_rekey=86400

I'm assuming we need to change the logger_syslog_level but I can't figure out how. Probably don't have access via SSH with the configured user login

Looks like I've found an additional command here: klogd

BusyBox v1.01 (2023.06.16-00:54+0000) multi-call binary

Usage: klogd [-c n] [-n]

Kernel logger.
Options:
    -c n    Sets the default log level of console messages to n.
    -n    Run as a foreground process.

I've tried running klogd -c 1 and unable to see any changes
