Back to La Fonera

The Fon heartbeat

This is the way to simulate the fon heartbeat, so that the fonera with dd-wrt is shown as active on the fon maps.

It is based on the work of freddy (http://fon.freddy.eu.org), futejia (http://futejia.blogspot.com) and krikkit (http://www.krikkit.net)

There are two ways you can enable your activity on the fon maps.

The easy way by wildblue (This guide is also available on http://www.wildblue.de/fonera/heartbeat/howto) :

  1. Open your web-based configuration on your DD-WRT-Fonera (e.g. 192.168.1.1)
  2. Go to the "Administration" section, then to "Commands" (German: "Diagnose")
  3. paste the follwing commands and select "Save Startup" (German: "Startup speichern")
#!/bin/sh
sleep 60
mkdir /tmp/simthefon
cd /tmp/simthefon
/usr/bin/wget http://www.wildblue.de/fonera/heartbeat/key
/usr/bin/wget http://www.wildblue.de/fonera/heartbeat/simthefon
/usr/bin/wget http://www.wildblue.de/fonera/heartbeat/known_hosts
cat /tmp/simthefon/known_hosts >> /tmp/root/.ssh/known_hosts
chmod a+x /tmp/simthefon/simthefon
( /tmp/simthefon/simthefon >/tmp/simthefon/simthefon.log & ) &

4. Now you can reboot your router or simply past the commands again and select "Run Commands" (German: "Kommandos ausführen")


Thats` is. Your Router is now active on maps.fon.com





Second, more difficult way by Krikkit (I don't now why he made it that difficult, even if he changed the original script):

1. download my script from http://www.krikkit.net/download/simthefon/simthefon.sh (thanks to futejia http://futejia.blogspot.com/ for his script)

2. download the fon key (you can get the fon key from here: http://fon.freddy.eu.org/fonera/fon-0.7.0-rev4/etc/dropbear/key )

3. download known_hosts file ( http://fon.freddy.eu.org/fonera/fon-0.7.0-rev4/etc/dropbear/known_hosts )

4. save the script and the fon key and fon known_hosts on your local ftp server or any location where you can download it with wget afterwards...

5. find out your MAC-addresses and change them in the file simthefon.sh

WLMAC
ifconfig ath0|grep HWaddr|sed -e "s/^.*HWaddr //" |sed -e "s/ //g"

MAC
ifconfig eth0|grep HWaddr|sed -e "s/^.*HWaddr //" |sed -e "s/ //g"

6. paste the text below into Administration --> Commands --> Commands input field and click "Save startup"

startup script:

#!/bin/sh
sleep 60
mkdir /tmp/simthefon
cd /tmp/simthefon
/usr/bin/wget ftp://192.168.1.2/simthefon/key
/usr/bin/wget ftp://192.168.1.2/simthefon/simthefon.sh
/usr/bin/wget ftp://192.168.1.2/simthefon/known_hosts
cat /tmp/simthefon/known_hosts >> /tmp/root/.ssh/known_hosts
chmod a+x /tmp/simthefon/simthefon.sh
( /tmp/simthefon/simthefon.sh >/tmp/simthefon/simthefon.log & ) &

do not forget to edit the wget commands, to fit your locations...

reboot your fonera...

your hotspot should now be ACTIVE on http://maps.fon.com
