gmscomputers 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2005 Hi, Can any1 help me for the problem I am facing?? I use connect to internet thru my FWP, but after some time when the data is not transmitting, the connection gets dropped. Many-a-times, it gets reconnected as soon as I start using the internet again (i.e. data starts transmitting) but some-times it gets hanged. And the connection does not reconnects. Although at the same time, my FWP shows the Data Call active with the time & send/received bytes speed. HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanx in advance. gmscomputers@yahoo.co.in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It may work but no guarantees.... Try it Edited March 17, 2005 by deepu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kaputnik 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2005 I use 98SE the trusted one  Anything for that? 17294[/snapback] Try Ping Plotter - I've used it successfully.. as of writing this message - I've had my computer running for the last 96 hours continously without a single hiccup (am downloading the complete Debian Linux) All you need to do is type in the address you need to ping (do this before you connect) and hit trace as soon as your connection is secure.. Set the 'number of times to trace' to unlimited and the trace delay to 2.5 seconds for great results.. My most favourite site to ping is 'www.ryze.com' quite a lot of sites block constant pinging.. this one returns multiple results too.. so it works out just fine...

Chandu 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2005 Hi, I bought a pre-paid RIM connection specifically for internet connection with Mobile and a data Cable. After lots of struggle i could install R-Connect software and make it work. The real proble started here. Internet connect gets disconnected every 1 - 3 minutes. I tried ping [ping -t www.ril.com] but still it gets disconnected. Moreover i tried to put AT+CTS=255 to increase "no carrier idle time" in initialization string. Still it disconnects. Really got pissed off with this. Can techies please help me to fix the problem. Details are below: Handset: LG RD5130; Datacable:AVON with theCD containng driver for 2130/7130 OS.: WINDOWS XP I guess, dormat is not a disconnection. right? -Chandu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No specific account given by Ril. It is #777 DIAL and then connect ti internet. Connection happens for a short time and disconnect . I tried to use Deepu's ping application but no success.

deepu 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2005 Could be some problem with driver or cable also!! Try to get the latest driver for 5130 and see if this problem happens again... Do not know whether the driver for 2130/7130 will work with 5130!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do not know whether the driver for 2130/7130 will work with 5130!! 30580[/snapback] ThanX Deepu, As per RIL, these drivers should work. Cable is fine. I downloaded 5130 driver from web and tried to install. It installs the driver half-way but, it stops in the screen saying "switchon the mobile -- connect the cable to mobile and laptop -- hardware installation wizard should popup automatically and follow the instruction". But even afetr 30 mins hardware installation did not popup. With 5130 driver from web, once it asked to insert FTDUI CD and it happened only once. i never saw that messsage again. These FTDUI files are with the CD supplied with cable [2130/7130] but, if i insert this CD to get these files, it installs 2130/7130 drivers] From where i can get these FTDUI files seperately? I want to try following: - Install 5130 drivers from web -- install FTDUI fies seperately -- install dialler seperately What is the best method?

Utsav 0 Report post Posted May 1, 2005 If you ping a slow server to save ur allotted data limit, your system resources are gobbled up by waiting pinging node. Deepu's pingapp works fine. I'm going to try other softwares as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Utsav 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2005 Deepu's pingApp works well but there is a bit problem while using it for me. The applet pings the first hop with a meagre 1 byte of data which sometimes makes the system unstable as well as the connection. Is it possible to create an option to increase the data to 8bytes or may be 16 bytes? Usually when I keep pinging with default 32bytes of data, it dives a more stable connection. You may reduce the transmission size of data of default pinging application i.e. ping.exe to 16bytes or 8bytes. For example, [ping xx.xxx.x.xx -t -l 16] will keep pinging the site with 16 bytes of data. Still here is the complete list of commands! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -t Pings the specified host until stopped. To see statistics and continue - type Control+Pause/Break; To stop - type Control+C. -a Resolve addresses to hostnames. -n count Number of echo requests to send. -l size Send buffer size. -f Set Don't Fragment flag in packet. -i TTL Time To Live. -v TOS Type Of Service. -r count Record route for count hops. -s count Timestamp for count hops. -j host-list Loose source route along host-list. -k host-list Strict source route along host-list. -w timeout Timeout in milliseconds to wait for each reply. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I've found 4bytes to be optimal for my system.

If you guyz want to put some intelligence in this app, then you can do some heuristics for MTU/MRU of the connection and accordingly tune the number of bytes per packet. Use and implementation of any other options here is unnecessary { my personal view, if disagree then free to flame me :-) }. Deepu what mechanisms you are emplyoing to construct the packets, is it raw socket interface or something else, BTW would you like to implement this program as a service.

deepu 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2005 This application is just a simple ping application and nothing else... It works the same way as the windows ping command The only difference is that it finds the first hop address and pings it!! From my own experience I have found that pinging the first hop address works best. Implementing this as a service... well i donot know whether thats a better idea.... I am just thinking of making a few changes so that it minimizes to the system tray instead of task bar.... You can get it from here http://www.deepu.info/pingapp.zip All comments are welcome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It works the same way as the windows ping command It's ok :-) The only difference is that it finds the first hop address and pings it!!From my own experience I have found that pinging the first hop address works best. And first hop adress is the P-t-P end of the PPP connection, BTW are you using tracrt to find this information or using the inforamtion provided by the properties of active PPP interface. Implementing this as a service... well i donot know whether thats a better idea.... As you wish :-), but if you will add the heuristics to find out the MTU/MRU information for the associated PPP interface it would be really great. Now you can tell your ping core to send the number of packets according to this information, you can even set the MSS information so generally transmission of data will become more reliable and fast. But hey since I am not going to pay you :-) for all these features it all up to you to implement it or not. BTW you have done some good work for this community. I am just thinking of making a few changes so that it minimizes to the system tray instead of task bar.... No problem nice idea and I guess you only need to hook to the window class system tray with your own callback routine :-) You can get it from here http://www.deepu.info/pingapp.zip Ewwwww it's binary only thing :-(, where is the source dude :-) Cheers ......................................

deepu 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2005 Hi DacoDecZ, Thank you for the comments and appreciation. I use tracert to find the first hop and do not get the info from the active PPP connection. The other things, I will try to do a lil bit more research and will surely try to implement them.. Getting time is a bit of problem for me and Since I am not a windows programmer its trial and error for me most of the times... Once I add these features I will surely release the source also.... Its all coded in VB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you want to know how to use these API in vb feel free to ask. You can also consult MSDN for more help, also see the following link maybe it will help you :-) http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=223025 I am also not a veteran windows programmer nowadays, but I used to be a capable programmer of MS WIN platform, even now if client demands :-( I have to do it.
