While the configuration web pages shown previously are for
configuring
the BYTTON HSDPA
equipment, and are accessible only with log-in (you have access if you enter the correct user name and
password), the Status Page can be accesses by any user.
It shows you the essential parameters of the Topex wireless router, that are available in the web pager
“SIM Status” and “System Status” described previously.
Data connection
: it may be offline, online or
stopped. If it is online, it also shows the current IP on
the WAN side, such as “172.20.36.180” or
“172.23.4.4299”.
You may have, as in this example, a SIM registered
online, the mobile network is available for voice calls,
but the modem connection is offline, you cannot
connect to Internet via HSDPA modem.
You can see also info about the Ethernet link or PPP
link.
PPPoE connection
: information about the data link using PPP over Ethernet. In the above example, the
status for the PPPoE connection is not yet available, so you see this error message.
Serial number
: Each Bytton device from Topex has an unique serial number, such as 0707211, 15, 17
and so on.
Firmware version
: version of the firmware running on BYTTON: you may see “Firmware version is
0.6.3” or “topex-1.2.3–NETWORK-xyz-P” in the above example, and so on.
The three digits following the name ”topex” show the version of the application program running, such as
0.7.2 or 1.0.0, NETWORK identifies the mobile network used (GPRS, EDGE, CDMA, HSDPA, EVDO,
TDD and so forth), while the three letters detail the platform, the modem type and the version (standard,
dedicated for a certain carrier, with hard disk drive, etc). Finally, the last letter indicates the type of the
case, P for plastic or M for metal;
Kernel version
: The new equipments use distinct Flash memory partitions for the operating system
(kernel) and for the application programs, making the product more versatile and more robust. The two
memories may be updated separately, according to the requirements of the users. The memory for the
operating system is write-protected, thus in case of problems, accidental erasure or power failure during
updating, you still have a “kernel” that allows you to load a new software image;
Modem Version
: code describing the version of the embedded firmware of the mobile modem of the
BYTTON equipment; it is useful for debugging.
