Taming Yota with Zyxel
I think many happy owners of high-speed Internet from Yota faced these two problems:
1. Internet connection disappears completely
2. Connection as it is, but it is not (very, very low speed)
Below are ways to deal with them. Immediately, I note that the solutions are for those who have a Zyxel router and a usb modem Yota.
The guys from Zyxel apparently heard about situations when the Internet falls off completely, and made Ping Checker for us. This setting allows you to check the availability of any node, pinging it if packets are lost, then it’s time to reboot the modem, which it automatically does.
')
In the picture, the Ping Checker settings, 8.8.8.8 - public dns from Google is quite a good site to check.
When there is a connection, and the speed is unsatisfactory or it is just almost zero, the Google server will respond, so Ping Checker will not help us. It remains only to restart the modem.
Can:
1. Pull out the modem and reinsert it;
2. Turn off / on the router;
3. Go to the web interface and reboot the modem there by clicking on the appropriate button;
4. Connect via telnet and reboot via CLI.
The latter method will be automated further. Rebooting the modem will require only double clicking on the icon. You can connect to the Zyxel router via telnet using the same username and password as in the web interface. After it opens the CLI.
Here is a guide for this very CLI. For those who do not read the instructions, it will be very useful to know that the question mark displays a list of all available commands, the question mark after the command displays a list of command parameters.
So to the point. First you need to get the naming of the modem interface (you can see in the web interface), I called YotaOne0:
Connect via telnet, enter the username and password, then:
Everything, the modem has to reboot.
It remains only to automate the above process. Here, of course, it all depends on the OS that you use. Below the bash script, you can probably do something like this for Windows:
Create some file, let's say reboot_yota.command, replace the username and password with your own, execute:
Is done. Double click on the file, reboots the modem.
Immediately emphasize, tested only on Mac OS, works fine. I hope someone will help)

Reboot the modem. Fast, cheap, high quality
