Hi @4IceG

I think it will be useful to have also:

  • picocom (to access modem over serial and send AT commands)
  • tcpdump or tcpdump-mini (for debugging)
  • nlbwmon for bandwidth monitor

Thx :)

HI @stich86
No problem :), I can add the first two programs to the image, although the at commands can already be sent using sms-tool / atinout. I have already added a nice program to statistics
wrtbwmon.

wrtbwmon

nice.. do you know if there is a cumulative counter?
I've an offer of 150GB/month, so it will be nice to have an overview of consumed GB

I know that the package counts the total transfer, but personally I am more guided by the consumption of the operator, I have 200GB/m myself.

I have added packages, but I don't know what else watchcat for, since the image already contains packages:

  • luci-app-internet-detector
  • luci-app-lite-watchdog
