Hi there,

my DSL router TD-W9960 works nicely for me, but it also freezes mysteriously once in two or three weeks, and needs reboot.

I am after a solution, which would help me to automate the device status check (working / frozen), and its reboot, if required.

Something like small Raspi box, connected to the internal network, with the script, which would repeatedly test, if outside world is reachable,

and if it is not, then it would send out an HTTP(S)  string to the TD-W9960, with valid credentials, asking for the device reboot.

This should be possible, as it can be rebooted interactively from the browser, from its javascript, by calling 

    $.loadBot("./frame/bot.htm");

Did someone already try something like this? I do not want to reinvent the wheel..

What would be the correct string which needs to be sent to the device, in order to get it rebooted?

Thanks,

HJ
