About

This library is meant to be used with the Nokia FastMile 4G line of outdoor modems/routers.

It can parse the data provided from the status.php page, no credentials required.

You can choose to use the example code provided in the main.py file to get a JSON-formatted output with all the information currently available or import the fastmile.py library in your own project.

Disclaimer

At the moment no credentials are needed for this library to work but that might change in the future, do not ask for them if you own an isp-locked modem. Google is your friend.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

To install the required libraries you can use pipenv or pip.

with pipenv
```
pipenv install
```
with pip
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

A working connection to the modem's management interface (by default https://192.168.0.1/status.php) it's needed.

If you use bridge mode, you will need to create an APN in "router mode" on a different VLAN.

Compatibility

At this time this library has been tested with the following models and software versions:

Nokia Fastmile 4G17-A
- FASTMILE2_D020111B90T0101M01E0130S

Feel free to open an issue or contact me at info@nlab.pw to expand this list.

python3 main.py -h
usage: main.py [-h] [-H HOST] [-t TIMEOUT]

Nokia FastMile API

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -H HOST, --host HOST  Modem hostname or IP address (default: 192.168.0.1)
  -t TIMEOUT, --timeout TIMEOUT
                        Connection timeout (default: 30)

Alternatively you can use the provided library in your own projects.

from fastmile import FMScraper

scraper = FMScraper(host="192.168.0.1", timeout=30)

scraper.download()

print(scraper.get_apns())
