STMT is similar to DMTtool, but requires slightly less configuration as it has been specifically written for ST routers... and will work with firmware 6.2x
When you install it, many of the instructions are also in English. However it does not appear to have the ability to force a resync with custom target SNR - even on a router that has the ability to do so with DMT tool.
That's right, kitz. Paraphrasing the STMT website, it simply provides a way of looking at info from the router in a consciously DMT-like manner. It doesn't set out to do anything else; the general idea is: if your ST router will run DMT, use DMT; if not, maybe STMT will give you at least some of the helpful info that DMT did -- specifically, graphing the bitloading (so you too can discover that Radio5Live wipes out half of your top-end spectrum, and that the local radio station 6 miles up the road wipes out the other half....).
Because it uses the 'bitloadinginfo' command rather than 'getdata' it does not suffer from the 300s delay that clobbers DMT on 6.1.4.6 and 6.1.4.9 firmwares, so if you haven't got anything better to do, you can watch your modem bit-swapping in something more like real time.
The 'modemoptions' boxes are a work in progress; even when complete, they will simply show the status -- as I think we've now all proven many times over on these forums and elsewhere, there really is no way of changing the modemoptions values on 6.2.n.n and higher firmwares, however sneaky you try to be in loading configs / with or without 'root' privileges / etc.
STMT also works on 7.x.x.x firmware / TG585v7.
Hope this helps clarify.
