modmon modmon - WebUI for monitoring Virgin Hub 3 cable modem stats

[Jack Yaz]

I've just pushed an update for modmon. No idea how modmon has been mounting for me...it should have failed to mount for me prior to the change

@Jack Yaz rebooted after updating and Mormon mounted fine. Back to normal, thanks for fixing so quickly!

Edit:
It doesn't work unauthenticated on my son's CM1100. So we may be SOL.

I recently upgraded from a CM600 to CM1100 and had the same...works unath on CM600, needs auth on CM1100.
But I managed to work out the sequence to authenticate, pull the page and then logout. I even managed to work out how to force a reboot of the modem if my script detects a problem.

If there's interest, I can post up my script. I run it hourly via a cron job and it writes the following to the syslog

Mar 11 08:30:04 check_modem: Channels Locked 37, Downstream 3.4 to 6.0 dBmV, Upstream 36.5 to 40.0 dBmV

POST via curl perhaps? i'd be happy to look at the script and integrate it for CM1100 users

Thanks for the update @Jack Yaz

One small problem though, after the update I now have 2 modmon tabs.

 

[L&LD]

Reboot.

 

[MrRederick]

I did the same, had two modmon options, so rebooted. Now I have no GUI at all, and as modmon was the only extension, no Add-on tab.
SSH'd into the router and the command line still present, so have gone for a nuclear option.
Uninstall and reinstall.

@Jack Yaz I believe the recent update is still not supporting CM1100 modems correct? Thanks for looking into this!

do you have your syslog from this reboot?

 

[Jack Yaz]

Hotfix pushed for duplicate tabs on update. If you haven't updated already, you'll still get a duplicate tab (clear with a reboot or manually fiddle with /tmp/menuTree.js) but once the hotfix is installed there will be no further issues

Applied hotfix which gave me a 3rd tab, rebooted, back to the one again, just in a different order (which doesn't matter).
Thanks @Jack Yaz

Sorry, didn't capture it. Will update to new Merlin release today and force all updates.

Just discovered this addon, installed/run with zero problems, thanks. Extra fun in understanding the power expressed as dBmV, rather than W or even dBW; I know, I should get out more but it probably isn't legal.

Running on an RT-AC86U and Merlin 386.2 with a VM Hub 3.

Hello, I have the ARRIS SB8200, I found with inspect element it receives information from http://192.168.100.1/cmconnectionstatus.html

Upon installing the script it says my modem isn't supported, is there anyway you can help me in getting it to work for my model?

Thanks
