You don't need any code, you will need a device with an Ethernet port  though. http://www.kitz.co.uk/routers/hg612hacking.htm

There's no OS specific apps required. I think you may be getting confused with HG612_Modem_Stats which is a Windows only program for monitoring stats continuously.

The actual unlocking of the HG612 only requires a network card with an Ethernet port that you can set a static IP, and a browser to upload the unlocked firmware.
Any telnet client can then get the stats.
Macs can do all the above, just follow the link provided by licquorice.

Thanks liquorice  i have the net dumaR1 router n macbook to load up 192.168.1.1 was it ,,i will take a look  yes the HG612_Modem_Stats  would have been good to see is there an os tool to access the G.INP data ?

That's it, done.
Any telnet client can login and get detailed stats.
The WebUI provides some stats but some of it is incorrect.

As for automatically monitoring the stats continuously...
HG612_Modem_Stats is Windows only.
DslStats runs on Windows, Linux and RPi.

Both have been shown to work on Mac with an emulator like WINE, but I have no experience there.

Install Kitematic and Nallar (Ross Allan) has produced a DSLStats container that you can just run.  Works a treat.

why don't you get a router and use the modem purely as a modem. Any good router should provide ppoe and sit behind the modem using port 1 and then provide wifi if needed etc
