| Software reset of Westell 6100
First, take a look at this: »192.168.1.254/restartModemBS.htm?menu=0
This allows me to click on a button and reset my Westell 6100.
I can replicate this button/launch functionality in my own web page. It results in a browser window that stays open after the reset is finished. I have a basic understanding of a web form POST/GET and how it creates a URL to send.
Bottom line, I want to get a different IP address by resetting the modem via software. I want to do that in a Windows application where the user clicks a button. Specifications are that this reset functionality is launched with a single click, and, any application window that is launched as part of the process has to be closed automatically without any user interaction.
I can pretty much figure out how to start and close a process in a Windows application to meet that second specification. But, I seem to be unable to create a single URL string that has all of the correct parameters to get it to work. Has someone figured out a single URL string based on that URL that resets the modem? Or, is there a "generic" CMD shell command that resets the modem?
Thanks for any help. |
