MR1100 fails to reestablish the connection after the hang up
MR1100 - Dear netgear support, I'm having problem with connection - due to my operator restrictions, session is disconnected every hour, and solution is to switch data field OFF apply and then p...
Mexoh1To7kI tried several times to reply again but my posts disappeared. I don't know why.
So I try again without code.
My Model is from europ (1100-100EUS)
FW: 12.06.11.00
I ran your script again the last two days over night without success. When I manually uncheck mobile data in the mr1100 while running the script it does its job but not when the connection gets cut by the provider over night.
That night it was disconnected an your script didn't work.
I manually killed the script, started it again that morning (about 5:30 am). As far as I can tell it stucks on "Data appears to be disconnected, reconnecting..". till my ssh connection was timed out.
I have a external server monitoring my connection status. So I can tell that my router was offline from 5:23 to 8:24 am.
Could you provide a solution to get a working logfile from your script?
I tried with
python script.py IP PASS >> logfile
But this did't work and I have no clue how to use the logging module in your script ;)
maroc84Is the Data button checked or unchecked when you are disconnected?
The script appears to correctly detect that Data has been disabled. Perhaps it fails to re-enable it.
Sorry for my late reply.
So your script was working fine. I found out I ran my MR1100 in bridge-mode (IP-Passthrough) what wasn't working correctly therefor I could reach the IP of it without problems. This may be the reason the script couldn't restart the connection if lost.
After setting the MR1100 to normal router-mode and my router behind it as a IP-client it worked flawless.
So other news. Yesterday I got a firmware update to 12.06.12.00 and had no change log so I disabled your script for testing purposes and YEAY - without your script as active service on my raspberry py 4 the connection was rebuild after provider-site disconnection!
hopefully this wasn't just some strange mistake ;)
