Hi Arachnoids,
My last post regarding Telnet in Arachne 1.93 not functioning...
the problem has been solved by adding telnet.exe AND config.tel to the
main Arachne directory.
Telnet was not there and so telnet.exe was picked from C:\. That however
is the windows version.
****************
Why do I need Telnet? To have the Thomson SpeedTouch modem connected to
the internet.
You remember I was stuck with Javascript to connect?
Now I telnet to the nameserver/gateway of the router/modem:
192.168.1.254
So:
Key "T" in Arachne to start Telnet
.................................. I am in telnet now
Press Alt-A to start => Alt-A
service? => 192.168.1.254
user? => Administrator (not administrator or admin)
Now all the commands to the modem become available
(Don't know how many... they are in a 422 pages .pdf downloaded from
the web)
Go to the modem's ppp department => ppp
"ifattach intf=Internet" connects => ifattach intf=Internet
"ifdetach intf=Internet" disconnects
Connection succesfull and Internet-LED on modem lights :-))
to return to Arachne => exit
****************************
Next question... how to automate this?
Tried to make a batch file... but it seems that after calling telnet I
have to use some script running within telnet. The batchfile however
does run outside telnet.
Ideas how to do this? Would be nice to use the "dial in" key in Arachne.
Disconnecting by an Arachne key would also be nice... but switching the
modem off is quick and easy.
