Got my Triband working today :-)) . Did a little googling for rebooting
the modem.
From
1. <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expect> and
2.
<http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-programming-scripting/63702-can-you-write-script-starts-telnet-then-input-commands-into-telnet.html>
I think this little script for rebooting a GLB-502T can be scheduled
with cron. Its bound to work for other modems too; with some modifications.
<script>
#!/usr/bin/expect
spawn telnet 192.168.1.1
expect "BusyBox on localhost login: "
send "root\r"
expect "Password: "
send "password\r"
expect "# "
send "reboot\r"
expect "%"
send "exit\r"
expect eof
</script>
Is surely better than timers and such.
Regards.
