After trying the free software I'd appreciate it if you left a comment if it DID or DID NOT work with your UTSTARCOM WA3002G4 ! Enjoy !
This software developed by me is free to distribute and use. It's not digitally signed and comes with no guarantees! Use it at your own risk!
Routers are usually rebooted by hitting the switch located at its back. Well .. that's OK if you have to do that when you are around. What if you needed to reboot the router when you are away from it automatically through the PC that is connected to the UTSTARCOM WA3002G4 wireless router?
If yes .. This article is for YOU!
Rebooting the Router assures that the Internet Service Provider's (ISP's) system refreshes daily data-transfer log for your account. Some ISPs provide free download times but fail to refresh you daily transfer log. So unless you reconnect to your ISP the daily trasfer log is not updated. (This happens with only some ISPs)
Things you'll need:
Upon getting a call from my ISP saying that they would update my old Huawei wired router with an elegant brand new UTStarcom Wireless Router, "That's just great" thought I. My Huawei router was commanded to reboot every midnight. This ensured that my ISP's system refreshed my daily data-transfer log. The reboot program used TST10.exe to telnet to the router and reboot it. It was frustrating to note that it did not work with the new UTSTARCOM WA3002G4 wireless router. TST10.exe could not handle the commands I issued or I did not know how to work around TST10.exe to get the job done.
Determined I decided to build my own solution. It fructified to this.
Hope you find it useful as well.

Thanks for the comments and updates !
ReplyDeleteEdit the .bat file before you use it with your modem.
@Apollo
ReplyDeleteThe file works fine when I execute it.
But for some reason it doesn't work when I schedule it, and the machine wakes up from sleep.
In order to make it to work, I have to manually login to user account and click on the CMD screen.
@WinPrabhu - try running it in 32 compatability mode.
ReplyDelete@AJ - please check permissions set in the task scheduler
@All - not sure if anyone is still using this exe anymore. Not even sure if the download link works anymore, its been a while...
ReplyDeleteI think/hope the world might have moved onto better things now ?
