New monitor tool (2.0.0.0) to reboot router automatically

[Isitme]

Is the little icon in the tray green?

[carwyn]

Are you asking me? If so then yes its is green at the mo. But it goes red many times in the day, sometimes every 20 minutes in the evenings untill I reboot the router. Maybe its a dodgy connection, only getting 7MB when the exchange is only 2km up the road.

[Isitme]

So you are not on Base(Up to 2Mb) as your Profile says?

Maybe you should start a thread in the Broadband Help section, posting your full detailed stats. You can do this by using the BSR. It gives the full stats plus shows if you have errors. Taking them from the normal position you use the router and from the Test socket allows the best diagnostics. Run for 3 or 4 hours in each position to get an accurate reading.

Post them here -

@carwyn - Your questions are covered by the default page in the Help file, so you might want to take another look at it. Also, I second Isitme's advice: sounds like a dodgy line / connection or similar.

Thanks to you both, will do what your both recommending.

Just a note that this doesn't seem to want to access the router under Windows 7

It reports "WARNING, Problem communicating with router. Auto-reboot functionality is now disabled."

Have tried running as Admin + compatibility modes.

No fix expected but thougt it was worth mentioning


Edit: USER ERROR ;-(

I had cocked up the config file. It works fine in Windows 7

Has anyone got this running with Network Magic v5.1
I'm having problems with Network Magic locking me out of the Router BUT only when BSR is running as well, normally occurs about an hour after both programs are started from boot up

Seconded - running happily in Windows 7 x64. Thanks Mossy!

I'd like to say thanks for the great app as well and I've been using it for a while now.

One question... any chance of a new version? I don't have Sky but I do have the DG834v2 and it's been fine until I updated to firmware v 3.01.38 (had to do it to get a more stable ADSL2+ connection). Now it can only monitor and rebooting is disabled. I not sure why as all the config is done. Maybe the new firmware has changed the urls for the different pages it needs? Or maybe they've closed something they thought was a security hole.

Cheers
