MMM-NetworkConnection

@epi

I copy and pasted your config entry and it fires right up. Did you follow the directions in the readme for installation and dependencies? Have you tried the module by itself? Have you modified any of the module files?

My terminal output upon launch:

@epi said in MMM-NetworkConnection:

module: “MMM-NetworkConnection”,

@epi

change in your config.js the name of the module from

module: "MMM-NetworkConnection",

to

module: "MMM-NetworkConnections",

I think that is your problem.

@sandy2503

Uhhh . . . . no.

@Sandy2503 I changed to “-s” and still did not work.
@Mykle1 I followed the installation guide, incl. the dependencies. I did not modify anything. I tried the module alone (all other cfg removed), still did not work for me.

What is the installation folder for dependencies in your case?

[Mykle1]

@epi

Dependencies should be installed by running npm install in the MMM-NetworkConnection directory

Guys, can someone also make a simplified version? No need for internet speed metrics, just the ability to ping specific ip address and return as “internet is working” either “network down”?

@slametps here is the Italian translation if you want to add it.

{
	"NETCONN_CONNECTED": "Connesso ad Internet",
	"NETCONN_NOTCONNECTED": "Nessuna connessione ad Internet",
	"NETCONN_MILLISECOND": "ms",
	"NETCONN_NA": "ND",

	"TXT_NETCONN": "CONNESSIONE DI RETE",
	"TXT_NETCONN_DESC": "mostra lo stato di connessione ad Internet"
}

@slametps I had long read at speedtest readme however I couldn’t figure out what to edit to have a different server selected as best/favourite server.

These are the details of the wanted server:

server url="http://speedtestrm1.telecomitalia.it/speedtest/upload.php" lat="41.9000" lon="12.5000" name="Rome" country="Italy" cc="IT" sponsor="Telecom Italia S.p.A." id="3243" host="speedtestrm1.telecomitalia.it:8080"

Currently, the module is using default test server provided by speedtest-net node module. You should modify node_helper.js to add your desired test server.
You can find how to add the options, in here.

@slametps that is where I looked at, but then I didn’t understand what file and what lines to edit.

The problem is that the default server looks to be located in the US therefore showing a very high ping and low speed results isn’t really what someone is expecting from the module. ;)

@slametps at the end of the day I found finally some examples around, but everybody is reporting that setting a specific server somehow is not working (anymore?).

The line should look like

var test = speedTest({maxTime: 5000, serverId : "3243"});

however this causes an error in node_helper.js at MM loading and the screen goes black until I end MM itself. :confused_face:
