ZTE Connection Recovery Program

This is a Python program for automatically recovering a dropped connection on a ZTE mc801av1 box.

• Note: This has not been extensively tested, and may not help at all. What this does is attempts to trick the box into refreshing the uplink from the ZTE box to the ISP's tower.

   git clone https://github.com/zutto/zte-mc801a1.git
   cd zte-mc801a1

3. Run the script using the following command:

   python3 main.py --zte-password <your_zte_password> --zte-host <your_zte_host> --zte-remote-host "google.com"

• zte-password: Your ZTE device password.
• zte-host: The IP address or hostname of your ZTE device.
• zte-remote-host: The remote host to monitor connection to (default: google.com).
• • This remote host needs to be a host that accepts a tcp connection, prefer IP addresses for faster failover)
• zte-remote-port: The remote port to monitor connection to (default: 80).
