MySignal v5

[ProAsm]

<b>MySignal Version 5.0</b>

With special thanks to <b>JAS</b> we redesigned <b>MySignal</b> to <s>change</s> <s>improve</s> <s>compensate</s> help monitor <s>for</s> the <s>large</s> <s>many</s> few issues [add]currently[/add] being experienced with MyWireless. []

<b>New in 5.0</b>

Added Date to display log line.
Added Writes MySignal.log after quit everytime.
Added ReConnectScan and ReConnectSignal to INI file.
Added Tower information rescan before connection retry.
Added Retries display and addition to 'Device Connected'.
Added Config Save button in Config tab.
Added 'Signal Low' message after rescan if signal below threshold.
Added Manual Connect will also retry if connection fails.
Added AT Command button to network section. (can send AT commands to modem)
Moved Auto Reconnect checkbox to Config tab.

The Auto Reconnect feature has been functionality enhanced with the addition of a rescan of the Tower and Signal information before the connection retry.
If ReConnectTime is 15 or longer and ReConnectScan=True, then when a "Connection Dropped" is detected the Auto Reconnect waiting period countdown timer is set to ReConnectTime.
The Tower and Signal information will be re-scanned when the countdown timer reaches 12 and 6 seconds before the connection retry.
If the signal exceeds the set ReConnectSignal on the first scan (12 seconds), the Timer will be zeroed and MySignal will attempt a reconnection.
If the Tower's Signal Strength does not equal or exceed the ReConnectSignal level, then the "Retry" will abort and the ReConnectTime will again be set for another waiting period countdown.
This will continue until the signal strength exceeds the ReConnectSignal level, when a reconnection will be done.
The updated Tower and Signal information appears in the display log, as well as the number of retries.
Auto Reconnect now also operates after a failed manual connection attempt if ReConnectAuto=True.
The Auto Reconnect sequence can be stopped by pressing the Disconnect button.

Below is a working example of when JAS's Tower went down and came back up with a <s>new</s> <s>old</s> <s>forgot to change</s> another Tower ID number.

Hopefully your input will continue to be available to our community

The misus had an op on here hands thus putting here out of action for 4 weeks and I took over all the duties, including driving her around (in her new car), cooking washing, cleaning, meal preparations and all I can say is thank God I'm a man.

I kinda looked up the forum like once a week but had too many purple folders to catchup on []
Regarding MyWi... well from now on I'm gonna leave that up to the "experts" []

Does MySignal 5.0 still insist on creating a desktop icon every time it's run?

I hope you were refering to the BOYS and their MATES (that they have IMPORTED) at HQ, as us users are tired of being the "experts"

Goodluck with the wife and also look after "yourself"

Hi ProAsm, welcome back!
Do you have any plans of adding ethernet support to MySignal?

 

[ckleynhans]

Hi ProAsm,

I am supporting bck here. If we can get a Ethernet version of MySignal, we will make your rich (richer).

Keep up the good work.
