Internet Monitor

[mg_switch]

@bhepler Confirming…100% working as suggested. I have included the local speedtest server to the config (serverID), the verbose now displays this server…and the speed gauges show the expected speeds, DLs and ULs. Nice work.

[nickthebeer]

@bhepler ok, I’m seriously missing something here…I removed the internet monitor folder and did a git pull from your page (https://github.com/BrianHepler/internet-monitor) and also cleared down my config.js to a simple config but it just doesn’t look right (see attached image) I’m missing the wifi symbol and it defaults to a speedtest server in Norway and not the one specified in the file (12667 in the US).

Please help, it’s slowly driving me insane.

@nickthebeer - Dude I am so sorry! I just saw your post now. I don’t know why I didn’t get a notification. Let’s get you fixed up.

The problem is in the capitalization of the ServerId variable. You have Id in all caps. It’s uppercase “I” and lowercase “d”. Copy & paste this:

{
            module: 'internet-monitor',
            position: 'top_center',
            header: 'Internet Monitor',
            config:{
                type: '',
                maxTime: '20000',
                updateInterval: '0',
                verbose: 'true',
                serverId: '12667',
                displayStrength: 'true',
                displaySpeed: 'true',
                strengthIconSize: '80',
                maxGaugeScale: '100',
                wifiSymbol:{
                    size: '50',
                    fullColor: '#3afc25',
                    almostColor: '#ffff0c',
                    halfColor: '#ff8c00',
                    noneColor: '#ff1111'
                },
     }
},

Yeah I am not able to get the plain WiFi symbol to appear as well. The heading size responds to the new sizing of where a symbol should be, but no symbol appears.

[GoodWillGustin]

I am also not getting the wifi icon to appear by itself. Hoping for an update/fix as I really love the idea of a wifi status icon on my MM.

[mattx38]

@GoodWillGustin I’d like to have it also.
I experience some wifi disconnections and I sometimes notice it couple hours after the issue. So that would be great to have it on the mirror, just like on the graphical UI of the Pi.

[nickthebeer]

@mattx38 I have just the Wifi icon on my MM, can you paste your config and I’ll take a look to at it. Also I setup a little script to restart my networking in the event of disconnection which I can share if that’ll help?

[bhepler]

Is the missing WiFi icon still an issue? I haven’t looked into that area of the code. If there seems to be a problem I can dive into it.

[rafaelcota]

@bhepler I have the same problem, No Wifi icon. Have mirrors in MacOS and RPI and have same results.

[bhepler]

All right, I’ll dive back into it and see if I can fix it.

Update: Some progress made but still a ways to go. I ended up refactoring a lot of the code.
