Automated PuTTY Session to a Cisco Router via VBScript »
Because of my recent communication issues with a cable telecommunications provider who just can't seem to get things right, I've had to log into my router a number of times to reset the line. And in case you're wondering, it's because I use a Cisco router at home, rather than the standard Linksys fare. It provides a better connection - provided the line itself is working. Unfortunately, if the line goes down, it doesn't do quite as good as job as recovering, which is odd, since it's a lot more expensive.
So it means that I need to log into the router and shutdown the line and reset it anytime the line goes down - which over the last week and a half has been several times a day. This isn't a difficult process, but it is a pain. Either I have to load up a serial session or a telnet one, and then type four commands. Like I said, it's not hard, but it is tedious. In fact, it's really tedious. So I decided to come up with a solution.
