Default NU Configuration

Hi,

I have a few doubts on NU usage. I don't have this facility and cannot try. It will be nice to have your observations.

1. To use Imran's Broadband Utility, which one should we use, PPPoE or Bridge mode.

2. Is there any method to switch on and off the PC at any desired time.

I do not know about Imran's utility.

I use my own set of schedulers , tools and processes for night time download.

I use power shutdown(older version was free, new version is paid one) for scheduled reboot, shutdown PC, disconnect modem and many more.

Do we need to use bridge mode for using this sofware.

i think both should work ,as the tool only restarts your modem , after that you could use whatever method to reconnect..

For bridge mode, the most simplest schedular for night imo is IDM,

Using power management in BIOS i set the wake up on lan date and time settings for night, schedule the IDM and then turn off the computer, leaving the ups and modem lights on.

Scheduling IDM
YOu can set the start queue and stop queue time and enable the option turn off the computer when done. When the downloads stops at set time it determines that the schedule has finished and the computer shuts down, disconnecting the internet automatically.

IDM automatically dials the internet connection at start queue time to start downloading the files in queue

  • If a program stops responding , then windows will not shutdown, what would you do then ?
  • If the IDM download completes way before 8AM, suppose at 5 AM, the PC will shutdown or hang up the modem, while torrents are still downloading , waste of another 3 hours or so. What would you do ?

I think keeping dialler independent of the scheduler will be a better idea.

Use Auto power on and shutdown, though i havent used but my friend says it performs very well

else wise use the batch files to rebot the modem/router and configure your windows task scheduler, as it is more reliable

I found a software which can be used to redial if connection fails. Thought of sharing. Please find it here

Description:

" ReConnect is a free utility that will automatically reconnect an internet connection when it disconnect "

Another one,

ADSL Autoconnect

Description:

. Open an ADSL connection at Windows' Startup
· Automatically reconnect
· Reinitialize the connection every X hours
· Notify IP address changes (Mail, FTP, Post)
· Show transfer rates

If one is looking for something out of these software .......... the most reliable option is to use the Windows Task Scheduler ............


This method applies to Bridge mode :-

{I'm currently writting this tutorial based on Windows Vista,so some steps maybe different in Windows XP;but the script would work in Windows XP as well(In case one finds difficulty in using it in Windows XP just reply back)}

(1).For Disconnecting the Internet connection :-

(a).Open the Windows Task scheduler.
(b).Click on 'create basic task'.
(c).Give some name to the task and description(if you want) lets say: 'Disconnect'
(d).Select the Time and date etc. to Run the Program.
(e).Select the 'Start a program' option.
(f).Now paste the below mentioned script into the space provided as "Program/script" next to the Browse button.

The Script is :-

%windir%\system32\rasdial.exe /disconnect

OR

C:\Windows\System32\rasdial.exe /disconnect

;where /disconnect is the argument.

(g).now save the new task by clicking Finish in the next step.



(2).For Connecting the Internet connection :-

(a).Open the Windows Task scheduler.
(b).Click on 'create basic task'.
(c).Give some name to the task and description(if you want) lets say: 'Connect'
(d).Select the Time and date etc. to Run the Program.
(e).Select the 'Start a program' option.
(f).Now paste the below mentioned script into the space provided as "Program/script" next to the Browse button.

The Script is :-

C:\Windows\System32\rasdial.exe Connection Name Username Password

;where

Connection name;username;password are the argument.

Connection Name is your connection name like say: Broadband etc.
Username is your broadband Username
Password is your broadband password.


(g).now save the new task by clicking Finish in the next step.


Steps To be followed for system shutdown :-

(a).Open the Windows Task scheduler.
(b).Click on 'create basic task'.
(c).Give some name to the task and description(if you want) lets say: 'Shutdown'
(d).Select the Time and date etc. to Run the Program.
(e).Select the 'Start a program' option.
(f).Now paste the below mentioned script into the space provided as "Program/script" next to the Browse button.

The Script is :-

C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe -s

;where

-s is the argument.

(g).now save the new task by clicking Finish in the next step.

the above mentioned task would give you a warning that "The System would shutdown in less than a minute" .
the default Time-out period is 30 seconds

but if you want the system to shutdown instantly make a simple modification in the above mentioned script as mentioned below:-

The Script is :-

C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe -s -t 00

;where

-s -t 00 is the argument.


With this script the system would close all the running programs instantly without notification and will shutdown.



Like wise there are scripts for restarting the computer as well.

If you want the scripts for restarting the computer,modem etc. just reply back .

hopefully this helps ...........

If you are not comfortable with Windows Task Scheduler, try

Freebyte Task Scheduler

The scripting(batch file) method may seem very lengthy, but actually creating a batch file takes only seconds, and you only have to write one line of command in each batch file.

1 minute max

creating two schedules for both

2 minutes more

total 3 minutes

Impressive calculations .............

but anyways i had quoted so becoz i thought anything with a Name say batch file sounds like a GREEK for some users (new obviously)............ although i knew that method as well ........

and nothing to do with time ............. it's to do with complexity for a new user .
