MySignal.exe

Be very carefull when sending the modem Hayes commands, I did that and crashed the modem.
Most the simple ones work but once you connect its a whole new ball game, your screen fills up with "garbage" so quick and you have to wait till done before you can disconnect [V]
I actually played around with a "faulty" modem so crashing it was not a problem [:D]

MySignal just got a whole lot better and changed its looks [;)]

I tried removing the form but my graphics ain't so good [V]
 
Ey. Question about this modem.

Currently we cannot see signal strength while connected, cause were using COM with AT to talk. so only one channel, and when data connection is in use, we cannot talk.

But isnt there a more direct way to the modem? Or is this modem a serial only device? Or is it possible communicating through the USB with some sort of API? I Mean, are the drivers COM port drivers for a USB modem, or is it possible for another form of communication that would allow to get modem statistics while being connected ?

blah, in the end, I want signal strength while connected :)
 
I'm still trying to figure the modem out and yes my aim is to have the signal strength while connected and fortunately I have another "test" modem to play with.
When the modem is offline, you can use AT or CG and CR commands, but the moment you tell it to connect ATD*99# and it connects, the stuff streams in at such a rate of knots that any display program you are using (hyperterminal) is miles too slow to display the stuff.
So I made an assembler routine and dumped the stuff to memory then saved it to the hard drive and busy figuring all this stuff out atm.
Now I figured once the modem is connected, the normal AT etc commands dont work.
What I want to do now is make a complete logon program and just before I connect, switch it to a Leased Line Modem using +++ Escape commands if it allows me, and hopefully I have some joy here [;)]

Some usefull stuff:
ATI4 = IPWireless modem
ATI11 = UE Software Built: Aug 12 2003 19:37:48

Quering the commands AT&V gives:

Whatever you do dont ever send a AT&C1 - bye bye modem [V]
 
Why assembler ? hehe
I'll probably check this stuff out over the weekend,
but if you do figure anything out :) Post here,
that way, we can let you do the dirty work, and we can use it :)

Thanx for the AT&C1 tip :) Will probably be usefull.
So how did you learn this ? By experience ?
 
Experience, trial and error, blowing up a few things etc.. [:D]
 
What happens when you send AY&C1 ? Is the device damaged beyond repair? Does it need to be re-flashed?
 
Would really like to know how the ethernet connect works. Telnet doesn't seem to get a response on the conventional port. Maybe there is a special port. It should be standard, otherwise the router won't know how to talk with it. If anybody knows or find out, please post here.

Thanx
 
Thanks for the mails on MySignal and I agree it is a bit big [:)]
2.2 cut down to 75% and neatened up a bit [;)]
 
Okay, I must be totally blonde or something but when I open mysignal I get nothing? No base station, nothing. Am I supposed to click connect on the little telephone? I did try that and nothing. Does it take some time? I was offline whilst trying. HELP? ;)
 
If you are using Xp then just click on connect (yellow telephone), maybe a few times if you have other stuff running in the background like M$ Office (grrrrrrr)[V]
If you are using Win98 then you need to click on the Config button first.

Proasm, your Mysignal.exe works great. I increased my signal from 15% to 45%, just by moving around the house.Only snag is my daughters room has the best signal and my study the worst ! I can see the tower out the window from her room ! Can I rig an external aerial so that I can work from my study ?
 
Yes, once the connectors come into stock, get yourself a patch antenna and erect it in your daughters room. A patch antenna is small and looks like a rectangular box (5cm x 10cm x 30cm) and can be stuck on the wall or window with double sided tape or prestik.
With a signal strength like that it would be interesting to to some tests for us, especially if you can get a higher reading.
If you got 45% with only the modem, then a patch antenna should push you into the 80+ area. [:)]

what tests would you like me to do ? I'll do them from both locations - 15% and 45% and give you the results right now if you like
