Usage

Initialization

import telstra_smart_modem

IP = '192.168.0.1'
USERNAME = 'admin'
PASSWORD = 'Telstra'

# Create tsm (Telstra Smart Modem) modem object:
tsm = telstra_smart_modem.Modem(IP, USERNAME, PASSWORD)

Devices

# Get current devices object from modem:
>>> clients = tsm.getDevices()

# Get list of seen devices:
>>> clients.devices

# Check if a device is currently connected:
>>> clients.isOnline("00:00:00:00:00:02")
True
>>> clients.isOnline("11:11:11:11:11:11")
False

Online status

# Returns 'online' if the modem is connected through the WAN port.
# Returns 'backup' if the WAN connection is down and the 4G backup is active.
# Returns 'offline' if both the WAN and 4G connections are down.
