Hi..... if you are looking to easily automate free downloads, just try this..... This has been brought up in many threads, still i just managed to summarize everything here... The main reason for bringing this up again is because so many are still searching to find a way to automate downloads.....

you will need to configure your modem to work in BRIDGE mode for this to work.....

Steps to configure UT300R2U modem is here, also given is how to create a dialler.....

http://www.indiabroadband.net/bsnl-b...reduced-2.html (Home 500 + UT300R2u bandwidth suddenly reduced)

Some do say bridge mode is a bit of a hassle, but i find no problems with it whatsoever till now.....

I tried this on xp-sp2 and should work on vista as well, I hope......

All you need to do is put the system in Hibernate mode and make the windows scheduler run a command file at say, 2.15am (to make sure we don't start before 2am......)
Make sure your modem is also ON..... Don't worry, in bridge mode unless you log in from the dialer internet won't be connected......

Code:

@ECHO OFF

:CONNECT
rasdial connection-name username password
if NOT %ERRORLEVEL% ==0 GOTO FAILED
EXIT

:FAILED
GOTO CONNECT

copy paste this into notepad, replace connection-name with your dialer name, username with your bsnl id, password and save as connect.cmd.........
next step is to make the windows scheduler to run this file at 2.15am....

note:To make the windows scheduler work you will need atleast an account with password on your computer..... This is no problem..... If you log in every time as Administrator, just create a password for it (like xyz or 123 or anything).............. Or create a new account with password.....

Lastly make your torrent client run at say, 2.16am.....

By the way, I'm using XP-SP2 with UT300R2U modem, Utorrent..........

Can u tell me how to create a dialer in Macbook??

Archer · 10-30-09, 06:30 PM

Code to run the torrent client

Code:

start "" "path to torrent client executable file"

Example: start "" "C:\Program Files\uTorrent\uTorrent.exe"

Code to hibernate Windows XP

Code:

RUNDLL32.EXE PowrProf.dll,SetSuspendState

PS, Windows scheduler is unreliable. Using a 3rd party scheduler software is better.

The only problem I found with windows scheduler so far is that it will need a user with password to run a task..... This can be easily solved by setting an easy to remember password like 123 etc......

Create two batch files using rasdial and schedule it using Windows Scheduler or a third party client.

You will find it here

I assumed everyone will wake up at 8.00am......

In case you don't here is the cmd file code for disconnection.......

Code:

rasdial connection-name /DISCONNECT

save this as a cmd file and schedule to run at 8.00am.......

Does this script also wakes system from hibernation ? I use the BIOS settings to start system system after 2 AM, so never tried it.

I am using this method in Windows XP SP3 without a password protected account. The reason I said Windows Scheduler is unreliable is that sometimes it doesn't run the task.

After you create a scheduled task, right click and select properties.....
Ensure that Wake the computer to run this task is enabled.....
This will make the task scheduler to run the task resuming from hibernate mode......

See screnshot below.....

Ya, that's the only problem with windows scheduler.... u need to have an account with password to run windows scheduler....... Otherwise it won't work..... It's easy.... just enable a password for your account.......

Archer · 10-30-09, 09:20 PM

Thanks. I never noticed that option before.

I mean it also works without a password protected account.

Enable "Use the Welcome screen" and disable "Use Fast User Switching" in User Account settings. Also enable "Run only if logged on" in windows scheduler task properties and it will work without a password protected account.

Configure Mac OS X

1. From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
2. From the View menu, choose Network.
3. Choose "Internal Modem" from the Show pop-up menu (or the "Configure" pop-up menu prior to Mac OS X v10.1).
If your computer does not have a built-in modem, select your external modem.

4. Mac OS X v10.5 or later: From the Configuration pop-up menu, choose Add Configuration.
Mac OS X 10.4.x or earlier: Click the PPP tab.
5. Enter your information into the relevant fields. Your username goes in the Account Name field, for example. If you want to copy this connection information to other user accounts on this computer, select "Save password".
6. You should now be able to connect. If you need to configure DNS servers or other advanced settings, continue to the next step.
7. Mac OS X v10.5 or later: Click the Advanced button, then click the DNS tab.
Mac OS X v10.4 or earlier: Click the TCP/IP tab. Choose either PPP or Manually from the Configure pop-up menu, as instructed by your Internet service provider. If configuring manually, type the IP address in the matching field.
8. Type the DNS server addresses in their field if necessary (click the "+" button first in Mac OS X v10.5 or later).
9. Click OK.
10. Click Apply (or Apply Now for Mac OS X v10.4 or earlier).

Connect and verify

1. Mac OS X v10.5 or later: Open Network preferences (in System Preferences).
Mac OS X v10.4.x or earlier: Open Internet Connect (from the Applications folder).
2. Be sure the Configuration pop-up menu is set to your modem.
3. Click the Connect button.
4. Once you're connected, open a Web browser or other Internet application to make sure your connection works.

hey jst download automation file from megaupload i have uploaded....

NoisySilence · 11-02-09, 04:47 PM

If I may have my own input, I had written a blog entry back in April based on using Batch configuration method.

here is the link -> z.pe/AbB (copy paste in browser)

also, i have made the xml config files for Vista available for download. so you can import them directly into your task scheduler.

Hope this helps
