I use ReLogMe. Works great for the most part, when I get the odd latency-related disconnect it automatically logs me back in. But my main problem is my connection itself. It's essentially DSL with a portal log in. Every 3 or 4 hours it will forcibly 'log out' and shut off the connection, requiring me to essentially go to a log in page and re-enter login info and hit enter before the internet works again. Does anyone know of some means of automating this, so that it tries to connect to google or something every minute or so and if it gets a login screen, hit enter? I could probably figure out autoit given enough time but I was wondering if there was a greasemonkey plugin or something for firefox that could do this on it's own in the background. Edit: Well it won't let me delete the post, but after two days of searching I made this thread... only to have a eureka moment 20 minutes later. I've got ReloadEvery running and a greasemonkey script that automatically fills in the information if the page loads. So we'll see how it goes tonight.
Well I was wrong. The auto submit script for the login page works perfectly on both chrome and firefox, however once logged in it goes to a different page. I've unsuccessfully dug through userscripts.org. What I need is some sort of script or backgroundable macro that tries to go to google or facebook or something every x seconds. Auto-refresh is a no-go, it needs to specifically go to -a page- on a timer. Any ideas?
Edit 2 .... Tested and working Auto Hot Key script Discription Switches between Google.com and Yahoo.com every 10 seconds Instruction : Install AutoHotKeys www.autohotkey.com Download script and rename to WhatEverYouWant.ahk Run internet explorer setup and run bot(s) and wow right click the script and choose run script To stop script running right click AHK in the system tray and select exit You won't be able to use the computer while it is running as IE is brought to the forground every 10 secs (adjust the delays as you see fit). Tinkering with your computer between the delays will likely make the script fail. Script : IfWinExist, World of Warcraft ;Test if WoW is running { Run, www.google.com loop { Sleep 10000 Settitlematchmode 2 WinWait, Google WinActivate, Google WinWaitActive, Google Send, {F6} www.yahoo.com {enter} Sleep 10000 Settitlematchmode 2 WinWait, Yahoo WinActivate, Yahoo WinWaitActive, Yahoo Send, {F6} www.google.com {enter} } } else { SoundBeep ; Play the default pitch and duration. }
I love you man. I had to edit the script a little, but now it loops from the login: success page back to the login page, where it submits the info again and repeats the whole process every 10 seconds. Now I just have to figure out which relogger will work if it's not forgrounded. (Now let's see if it works in practice. Going to sleep and we'll see in the afternoon.)
