 1 | # rebootHitronRouter
 2 | 
 3 | Description
 4 | ===========
 5 | Using this script you can reboot your Hitron CGN3 router via command line. 
 6 | Rogers in Canada sold this router as Rogers Rocket CGN3 cable modem/router.
 7 | 
 8 | How to use
 9 | ==========
10 | You need cURL and bash. Edit the script if you have a non-default router IP,
11 | username or password. Just execute the script and the router should reboot.
12 | 
13 | Motivation
14 | ==========
15 | Even after several software upgrades this routers keeps crapping. The symptoms
16 | are very high packet loss and the connection seems slow. 
17 | A simple reboot always fixes the problem for me. I just run this script via 
18 | cron every night to refresh the router daily.
