DSLstats pre-release version 5.0.2
« on: August 05, 2014, 10:36:51 AM »

This is work in progress, but I'm making it available now because (a) it might fix those strange errors which a small number of users have reported, and (b) it incorporates the new agreed scaling for the QLN and HLog graphs which was recently discussed.

Full list of changes since v5.0.1:

- all text pages now have "Copy to clipboard" buttons
- all graphs now have legends and "Hide legend" checkboxes
- all graphs with "Tone number" on the X axis now have a timestamp under the graph at the left
- changed the vertical scaling of the QLN and HLog graphs to better reflect the range of
  possible values
- fixed bug whereby resyncs weren't being detected (for alerts and for the resync count)
- fixed a small cosmetic error with snapshots on Linux systems
- fixed exception which resulted when manually editing the traffic monitoring "Model" box
- added option to take auto snapshots of the traffic graphs
- made some changes which may resolve issues with "List index (0) out of bounds" and
  "Division by zero" errors seen by some users

Sweet, cheers for the update, I've been having a couple of issues with the program crashing.  Will try this version and see how it goes!  :)

V5.0.2 has been downloaded to The Cattery:)

Testing is now in progress . . .  :angel:

Unfortunately my testing did not take very long . . . I attach three screen-scrapes to show what I observed.

After deleting the configuration directory (~/.dslstats/) and then re-configuring the utility I now have it executing. So please ignore the third screen-scrape, above.  :)

Thanks for the information.

Concerning the other two screenshots, this is another of those manual editing issues. That box isn't supposed to be manually edited, and I confirm that if you do, an access violation results. It will be fixed (and I'll have a good look to see if there are any others :) ).

I deliberately tried to perform a manual edit as a result of seeing the following line in your opening post --

- fixed exception which resulted when manually editing the traffic monitoring "Model" box

Good work eric - thank you.

PS
Ive not been giving feedback of late because I've been testing some vdsl routers which have lantiq chipsets so unfortunately arent compatible with dslstats.
I will continue to report when I have a BCM modem/router back on.

I must be having a brainstorm. You raised this issue before, and I know I fixed it at the time, but somehow the fix got lost. I really will fix it next time. :-[

Please don't worry too much over it . . . After all this is a pre-release package that we are all trying, deliberately, to break!  :D

Thanks NS. Perhaps I should produce a special commercial version of it and advertise it as a lightning detector. ;D

Yes, it works well for this purpose especially with my overhead cable. Long time before the storm arrives the FEC error counter begins to increase.

The line and signal attenuation shown in the stats summary are the overall values reported in adsl info --linediag and should show as not available or not reported on VDSL2 connections. The per-band values aren't currently shown in the summary. I need to check how this is handled in the stats summary and improve the wording.
