Every time i reboot Raspberry pi 4. i need to reconnect Cellular. ( Open in the main menu option 8. Click yes. And it works. )

Need this option.. But not asked starting with TorBox v.0.4.0?
Do you want to activate the auto-connect / reconnect service at RPi boot up?
Depending on your use case, “Yes” or “No”.

I will look into it.

I added the functionality to reconnect an internet through a cellular connection if previously used to the rc.local, which is executed during the startup of the TorBox. It will be released with TorBox v.0.5.2, which should be ready in about a week.

You can already use that feature if you do one of the following possibilities:

  • Edit your rc.local with sudo nano /etc/rc.local and add the following line (see here):
    if grep "INTERNET_IFACE=ppp0" /home/torbox/torbox/run/torbox.run ; then pon ; fi
    In my case, I had to wait al,ost a minute after the boot up until the client updated its routes.
  • Download the raw rc.local file from TorBox v.0.5.2 with wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/radio24/TorBox/torbox-v0.5.2/etc/rc.local and move the new rc.local to the right place : sudo mv rc.local /etc/
  • Update your TorBox to v.0.5.2 with entry 5 and 6 in the Update and Maintenance sub-menu. Afterwards, you have to change the run/torbox.run file with nano run/torbox.run and to change the following:

# 0 - Not excluded
# 1 - Excluded
EX_SLOW=0
# TCS starting commands
# Syntax: TCS-<service_name>=<tcs command>
# This will configure the TCS program (do not remove or change that line - this is an anchor)

Feedback would be greatly appreciated.
